Ten Canoes

A parable of forbidden love from Australia's mythical past, with storytelling by Australian icon David Gulpilil and starring his son Jamie as the covetous youth Dayindi. This film is a ground-breaking glimpse into aboriginal life centuries before European settlement. Thanks to good-humored English narrative and the charm and magnetism of the land's indigenous Ramingining people you are transported into a rich Aboriginal world full of history and tradition that lives on to this day.
