If I was asked, then without any pause, I would say the Rabbit Proof Fence.
Brief story:
Western Australia, 1931. Government policy includes taking half-caste children from their Aboriginal mothers and sending them a thousand miles away to what amounts to indentured servitude, "to save them from themselves." Molly, Daisy, and Grace (two sisters and a cousin who are 14, 10, and 8) arrive at their Gulag and promptly escape, under Molly's lead. For days they walk north, following a fence that keeps rabbits from settlements, eluding a native tracker and the regional constabulary.
This movie reminds me of stories from my home country: South Korea.
When South Korea was under Japan's colonisation, there were also attempts to re generate generations. With all beautiful but fake titles and reasons, many of half caste children were born.
