Kuku Nyungkal, Australia: Walking on country with spirits
A short video about the effects of climate change on remote indigenous countryside located in the wet tropics in Northern Australia.
Located on the eastern shore of Australia’s tropical north, Shipton’s Flat is home to Marilyn, a Kuku Nyungkal Aboriginal woman, and her family. She has been living here the ancestral way – far removed from the services and conveniences of modern life – as part of the sublime performance of nature. Like her ancestors before her, Marilyn walks through the Nyungkal bubu, the Nyungkal’s country, acknowledging and conversing with the Spirit beings around her.
