 THE GROUND-BREAKING & AWARD WINNING DOCUMENTARY (2010) ON ABORIGINAL LIFE.

HIDDEN FROM THE EYES OF THE WORLD, THE OLDEST LIVING CULTURE ON EARTH FIGHTS FOR SURVIVAL.





THIS IS THEIR UNTOLD STORY.

Told through the voices of Yolngu people of Elcho Island, Northeast Arnhem Land, Our Generation is an unforgettable journey deep into the heart of remote Aboriginal Australia. Where the pride of an ancient culture is entrapped by third world conditions and the ongoing violation of their human rights.

Carrying the unyielding flame of resistance and justice for Australia's First Peoples, Our Generation is a fresh and contemporary look at issues that remain unresolved. It is a rallying call for understanding and action, so that Australia can finally proceed with dignity and respect for it's Indigenous people.

With Music by John Butler Trio, Yothu Yindi, Archie Roch, Goanna, Xavier Rudd, Saltwater Band, Royal Dealers, Oka ... and more....

"THE TRUTH IN THIS FILM IS LIKE A RED HOT POKER DRIVEN THE CONSCIENCE OF A NATION. THIS FILM IS A PLEA FOR REASON. ARE WE LISTENING? WILL WE ACT?" - Jeff McMullen, Former ABC Foreign Correspondent.    Source Facebook  Event Post
