Yolngu Boy

synopsis


Lorrpu, Botj and Milika are three Yolngu (Aboriginal) teenagers who once shared a childhood dream of becoming great hunters together. But as teenagers they have grown apart and changed: Botj has done some bad things resulting in jail time and Milika is more interested in being a good football player and in girls. Only Lorrpu is still closer to Aboriginal traditions and to their childhood dream. Botj's criminal behaviour escalates and it looks like he might have to return to jail. Lorrpu must weigh up his own future against saving the future of his friend. The three boys start to trek to Darwin to argue Botj's case with tribal leader Dawu. To survive during their hard journey in the bush and the forest, they must use the ancient Aboriginal knowledge, Botj's street instinct and rediscover the bonds of their friendship.
