Synopsis: A parable of forbidden love from Australia's mythical past, with storytelling by Australian icon David Gulpilil (Crocodile Dundee, and Rabbit-Proof Fence) and starring his son Jamie as the covetous your Dayindi, Ten Canoes 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.
Shot in and around the Arafura Wetlands of Central Arnhem Land, Rolf de Heer and the People of Ramingining have created a pioneering and timeless tale full of magic and mayhem, for all people and all cultures.
