Aboriginal/Native people on many continents have lots of kinship/death taboos that involve avoiding naming dead relatives,avoiding the gaze of living relations,not eating with certain relatives,close kin (brother/sister after puberty initiation rites),avoidance (to eliminate incest possibilities),etc.The "Australia" film has the same warning so people with these taboos can be aware of the content.
As a whole, the Who Do You Think You Are series is the best show on television. I heard it was a Japanese TV creation. I could imagine those great episodes where the subject discovers their samuri or ninja roots!
