Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance

The scene is the magnificent Kimberley, late 19th century and the last stage of Australia's invasion is about to be played out, in the lands of the Bunuba. A tiny outpost of colonial administration is planted on the desolate mudflats of King Sound, at Derby. Leases are marked on a map covering huge areas. Vast herds of cattle and sheep spread out. Amidst the chaos and turmoil that ensues, extraordinary and sometimes contradictory relationships grow. An indomitable human spirit and the power of country reaches beyond the searing past for the triumph of a reconciled future.
