Synopsis:
In this country, the Aboriginal story is often buried deep beneath the accepted 247-year Australian historical narrative.
It’s not that the Australian story is wrong, it’s just that it’s a wee bit one sided.
Getting all historical, Aboriginal filmmaker Trisha Morton-Thomas, bites back at Australian history.
