    A section of white Australia refuses to admit the terrible impact British colonisation had on the Aboriginal people of Australia. Australian schools have only just begun teaching the grubbier side of our history, the destruction and near of genocide of the indigenous peoples and their culture. As a white Australian, I found this film uncomfortable viewing. I couldn't help but feel a sense of shame and sadness.
    Unfortunately, i can't say this happened in a more 'barbaric' age. it was still taking place in the late 1950's and early 1960's.
    The Aboriginal people of Australia were only granted citizenship in 1967.
    A powerful, moving film.
