  • what is it in some men that they want to erase those that are different than them? i do not understand, but i am uplifted by every humans desire to be free and that maybe one day we will all understand.

  • @asevedo1 its called christianity believing itself to be superior to all other cultures and will use any excuse to destroy those it comes into contact with.

  • A great film. Peter Gabriel's music is heart rending...

  • I went out to Australia in 2005. I spent 5 days in South Australia making my way North up the Territory. I stopped for 2 days at The Cave Hotel in C.Peedy. On a day trip out to the Breakaways we stopped off at the "Dog Fence" - what I want to know is - is the Dog Fence the same as the Rabbit Proof fence as I know it goes from East to West and North to South. Or is the Dog Fence a separate structure? Please don't laugh at my question. Australia has a place in my heart (I'm British).

  • U know what the worst thing is? Humans never learn

  • Superb film, disgustingly, unimaginably cruel historical facts

  • i've seen the movie... i know its a sad movie but when it comes to the part when the old oman smashes her head with the rock its funny but the rest of the movie is sooo sad :(

  • i always skip the removal of the kids scene it makes me sad :(

  • es ist voll traurig =) aber total schön

  • Hope is the only thing those little girls had to make it back and I dont think any full grown man could have crossed the desert with nothing, much less two small girls with nothing but love and faith that they would see there mother again. Love is stronger than any goverment and any man or his evil deeds. They triumped over all the adversity. Greatest story ever!!!!

  • the sting sound are half speed tracks =)

  • @sebastianlanducci  Nah - digiridoo

  • WONDERFUL movie

  • This film is beautiful, so utterly haunting .

    I cry so hard every time I watch it, especially at the removal, when their mothers are just completely stricken, "NOOO! MY CHILDREN! MINEEE!" :'(

    Such a terrible time & so many terrible things that happened, it disgusts me and angers me, so many lives ruined :'(

  • Comment removed

  • RUN, RUN, RUN!!! You most beautiful children.... our hearts are with you!!! now run for your gorgeous little lives!!!!! RUN... Before the creeps catch you!!!!

  • Where can I download this one song??!!! Truly an epic track.

  • Everlyn Sampi is one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen.

  • soory but im kinda confused waht the movie called?????

  • @Sleepover1997 rabbit proof fence

  • @Sleepover1997 The movie call Long Walk home.

    The book called Rabbit Proof Fence...

  • Is listed as one of my favorite movies. I watched it as well as the CD that came with the movie CD, to see how the movie was made and learn a little about the children in the movie playing Molly, Daisy and Gracie. It's a heartwrenchingly beautiful sad courageous movie and thank goodness we have great directors to make them, and Peter Gabriel to put together music that epitomises the people, land and heart of the Aboriginal people.

  • It is a good reminder of the psychopathic (dog-eat-dog) system we tend to live in, where difference or outside-the-box cultures are treated with such discontent. Control-freak mentalities always tend to bring attrocities into the collective reality. Inner tendencies to always try to perfect things, as some would say 'squaring things that are not square yet'.

  • ...and ofcourse Peter Gabriel with his magNIFIcat music... melts down a rock :'-(

  • @Aliencircle Hang on.

    You are using a movie, and claiming to know the real history? Is that right?

    I am not arguing that taking the children was a bad idea, but drop the revisionist bull-crap. I am being realistic, and you are free to correct me, only if you can it without making personal insults.

    It seems to me that you already know that you are wrong.

  • @Aliencircle He may have been resourceful, but not unlawful. The laws didn't allow children who weren't impoverished, etc to be taken, and as yet not a single stolen generation child has been able to prove they were taken from a family that, even today, if they were white, would still be taken.

  • I rented the movie on Netflix. Beautiful movie. Why the Aboriginies were forced from their families is beyond me. I can see why they still feel some resentment towards the Australian govt. I would feel the same about the US govt. if they forced me from my parents.

  • @Seattlecarnut Um, if you are from the US, then you should be aware of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and their own program of 'assimilation,' which followed identical footsteps. Our government did exactly the same thing to the native populations of this country. (We were also kind enough to given them cholera-infected blankets to get them through some rough winters, thereby lessening the population we had to assimilate...)

    It's the way of conquerers...

  • @AbsentWithoutLeaving Very similar here in my country. We forced our Native American (Indians) onto reservations against their will. We were also kind enough to introduce nasty shit like cholera (among other diseases), alcohol and other drugs. Pretty sad state of affairs.

  • @Nikkafan Who ever said skin colour had anything to do with anything. The people who came looked at the natives as uncivilized because they were naked, and hunted people like animals.

  • @Nikkafan There was NO genocide plan. That what you say, when you bully the gov't for more grants.

    The fact is, there was a very real fear that aboriginals would not last, as they were doing so badly, and every aid was given - which may have been inadequate, but what would you expect in the 1800's.

    All these lies you tell yourselves do you NO GOOD.

  • great movie!

  • one of my favorite movies of all time

  • the people who think there is nothing wrong with what these people did to these kids clearly have mental issues .

  • I am reading rascists bullshit below. I am 58 years old. The film is accurate. I  am 5th generation Australian. There is cruelty of unimaginable proportion in our short history.Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

    May you rest in peace Ruby

    Lots of love

    To all the brothers and sisters

    We acknowledge you and your lands

    Michael

  • @Katzweasel

    The film is a characterization of the worst of the worst.

    The rest is nothing much. It is not as if aboriginals are so special that they can't be allowed to suffer, because white people suffer - we all do...

    Or are you unable to feel pity for white people because you are racist?

  • @Logicbeatslies What are you here for?

  • @Logicbeatslies So what are you saying? It didn't happen?Take off your race glasses and see it for what it is - an exquisite insight into love and humanity.

    Maybe these subjects are unknown to you?And you want to call me a racist?

  • @Katzweasel are these kids full blood native or half cast? i know the half casts were the most targeted and these do not look mixed..

  • @Tommydudez They first of all were kids.That in itself should be enough.Halfcast is a rascist colonial term - the very concept used by the 'Native Protector' to justify the immeasurable cruelty visited upon these children and their parents.You demonstrate how difficult it is by observation alone to identify children of mixed blood. Full blood native? How do you tell? Ask the family spirits?

    It's irrelevant.The children were stolen.Dont you get that?

  • @Tommydudez the characters were mixed race and they do look mixed race. besides, you can be any shade and any colour to be mixed. i have white friends who are mixed. i have black friends who are mixed.. get what im saying?

  • @jamspice11 Some were half caste, and some were full blood. You don't know anything.

  • @Katzweasel I have a friend who was brought up in a foster home and you know what...?

    He had a very nice family looking after him, and every chance that we all had - which is something NO aboriginal living in the outback has.

    You are really talk shit, when you make up stories of abuses that never happened.

    It's just pathetic that aboriginals seem incapable of accepting responsibility for their own lives and have to blame all their problems on the very people who have helped.

  • @Logicbeatslies really? i know people who have been fostered and were abused. this is because individual cases are different and has nothing to do with skin colour. leave the aborigines alone. just because they live differently doesnt mean they live the wrong way.

  • @jamspice11 Aboriginals can live how they like, but to take an isolated incident, sensationalize it until it doesn't even resemble the facts and compare it to atrocities that would disgust the hardest man, is NOT COOL.

    Me, reacting to that, is not an affront to aboriginals. The people who make up the lies are the problem, just as the aboriginals who love to hear sad stories which make them angry are the problem.

    The fix = take responsibility for your own problem, like we all have to too.

  • @Logicbeatslies okk. look at what the white people did to these innocent mixed race children? it wasnt just Jewish people in the camps. how about the apartheid in south africa? oh and why dont you google the mffa black holocaust and give yourself a real scare. i am not a racist. i am not saying at all that white people have never suffered but you cant really compare can you? because whites will always be at the top and we all know it really. in westeren society anyway.

  • @jamspice11

    How about you get real?

    White children from impoverished homes also were taken away, and with the same laws, still are...

    Even worse,some were taken away from their families in the UK, and sent to ANOTHER COUNTRY. Now that's much worse!

    Do you care about them, or is it you only like topics you can take out of context and alter to the extreme to claim to be a victim of anything that happened anywhere.

    It is sad it's pathetic,

    You are your own worst enemy.

  • @Logicbeatslies i know about that. it was awful how children were sent to australia and exploited. things like this are still happening. but we shouldnt be comparing whats worse for anyone, its all disgusting ways to treat human beings like their lives are worthless. and how am i claiming to be a victim?

  • @jamspice11 While you are big enough to accept that humanity has an ugly side. Please accept that aboriginals can be ugly too, and while you are at it, that other people have issues which should be addressed.

    It is really easy to fix this shit, but impossible when some people create much more trouble just because they feel the world owes them a living and only they matter.

    You are creating the cycle of abuse when you succumb to easily sensationalized problems which are muddied with propaganda.

  • @Logicbeatslies

    hey I agree with you. were learning about indigenous australia and how the stolen generation coccurs is soo cruel that stupid hamspice guy should get a life how would he like if he waas taken away from his parents gosh

  • @susania100 If you can separate the hyped up sensationalism from the facts you'll earn my respect...

    I won't hold my breath.

    I just wish you would apply the same standards to your self....

    Again, not too hopeful.

  • Logicbeastlies, Excellent mate! Welldone!!!

  • vi la pelicula entera y me  gusto mucho ,bravo por el director.

  • KIds should be with there mothers end of story, I am a dad and this story breaks my heart.doesnt matter what colour skin we have or religion, kids love there mum and dads, and all we should do is enjoy life. god bless the poor familys suffering around the world. You'll never walk alone!!!!!

  • Why was this happening to these kids, I dont know full story as i am a scouser, I have seen half the film but this is just pure evil what was happenin to these kids, There is some bad shit goin on in world, I wish some people would have a reality check and realise how evil they are, racists mother fuckers . And this is from a white person.

  • Where you from?

  • This clip shows the real movie...just wish the real sounds and music where in the right places to emphasis the real purpose of the movie itself...classic beautiful movie...I mean I'm white Australian and not a mother...but I think...we can all empathise in this movie in some way.....cheers...:-x.

  • now the real reason for the intervention is revealed. Our nuclear waste being stored overseas must be returned 2012/13. Funny how they want to store it on Aboriginal land far from the Sydney reactor which makes it. If nuclear power is so safe why dont they bury it near Canberra or Sydney? I wonder how many Aussies will protest when its away from them. All u will see is the ruination of that land. they should do it where they live.

  • There are no 'international" nuclear dumps in Australia, and I'm betting, if aboriginals who are living in the dessert were told that they could rent the land, they would sell out in an instant and say, fuck the land.

    So, the reality is more about conservation, as the rest of Australia dramatically opposes the use of Australia to dump nuclear waste.

    Wasted drunken aboriginals who dump their free new Landcruiser's on the road, because petrol costs money and that requires forethought don't care.

  • Comment removed

  • That wasn't an implication.

    Most of what you said sounds fair, big business has corporate morality - they don't care what they do, but I don't believe that the intervention is/was a land grab at all, much less a grab for land to use as a dump.

  • Comment removed

  • Idiot.

    The same rules DO apply to "those people of the city who neglect their kids and have alcohol and drug issues"

    That is the point!! The laws were consistent across all of Australia, and for racial reasons, only now, aboriginal kids can't be taken, but if you are white and think you bring your kids up in the same level of poverty and abuse as most aboriginal kids are, THINK AGAIN.

    If you are white the state will take your kids and foster them, every time.

  • Comment removed

  • Have you been living in a cave..

    NO

    Why are you passing obvious lies, as truth?

    = Idiot.

    There, is that better?

  • Go away moron.

  • @sharvie73

    Sorry didn't mean to interrupt your divisive self pity.

    Problem is, my tax pays for your bullshit.

  • Problem is my tax also pays for those dole bludgers who go to bali on tax payers money. Complain about them too. Oh by the way. I pay more tax than you because I earn more. What a moron stop this shit and get on with your life. Go to work for once. Yobbo dick head. Oh thats right. You r a dole bludger

  • @sharvie73

    You don't pay more taxes than I do, and if I see a video about dole bludgers suggesting that it is their right, and they own everything, and everyone owes them a living, I'll come down on them hard too.

    Dicky little kid, you are nothing. You can't even leave your comments live on the page, as your reasoning is like a little brainwashed 12 y'old.

  • But u r still a racist who cant rationalize your argument without starting to insult. I played along long enough to let u show that multiple times. U have no idea about what its like to be not white in Australia. U r a dick head and a moron who is a disgrace to this country. Bye bye cock rag.

  • Look, so far you have told lies.

    You say that the intervention was a land grab, meant for dumping nuclear waste. You were challenged, so you deleted.

    You say that the stolen generation were taken by racists, who didn't treat white people the same, a plain lie, and once proved wrong - you delete.

    What else are you going to lie about, and be caught out on?

    You only call me racist because you refuse to accept that you are wrong, and don't appreciate being called out as a liar.

  • @Logicbeatslies why would white officials take children that had perfectly fine mothers and fathers, that didn't needed to be taken? Why? I agree children should be taken away if they suffer abuse, neglect or bad living conditions, but for no legitimate reason at all is just disgusting. The reason is - an irrational intolerance towards Indigenous people based on their race (colour of skin, culture, language, way of life etc.) Now that in plain english is RACIAL PREJUDICE.

  • @DanniRox999

    That is the point, otherwise.

    They were taken using child protection laws - the same laws that are used on white families. In both cases the authorities had to prove that the child was suffering.

    There are criteria that I don't know about, but I believe that there not been a single case where the children were taken against the law.

    They weren't taken from black - given to white. they were fostered (housed/educated) like white children who need help, according to Australian law.

  • @Logicbeatslies I think you are naive about the arrogant abuse of authority that the children of Japeth, Noah's son, has used upon the other descendants of Noah, in particular the Hamites. The justification for the breaking up of families was probably based on some form of the doctrine of "the white man's burden. I don't say this with bitterness, but as a matter of fact. Just as Jim Crow was part of the law in the states, these policies allowed whites to make decisions for darker races.

  • @dlainieb3

    \

    Some unrealistic story from well over 2000 years ago, that may or may not have involved white people, has nothing to do with white people today, and the fact you drew such an obscure record out, shows to me you are more confused than anybody.

  • good film, good acting, good [true] story. feel free to replace all those 'goods' with 'excellent'. i hope one day that amends will be made, properly, not in a token-like fashion and then forgotten.

  • The movie shows the shame, but there actually hasn't been any cases where aboriginals were taken against the laws, which prevail for whites in exactly the same way.

    The movie shows a strong kinship, and proves that it was wrong to expect these kids to feel the same way as white kids do, even though they suffer too, when their parents are deemed unfit to bring up their children.

    I wouldn't say the movie is a "true" story.

    I doubt the "true" story would get the sympathy needed to make money.

  • Thanks P!

  • We might watch this movie in my Women's Studies class. It looks like a very good movie. I had never heard of it.

  • I watched this movie in English because were learning about the Stolen generation.

    it was Amazing! its soo incredible how her little sis daisy and molly made it all of the way to home.

    I loved this movie!

  • I was watching the force removal scene and started crying...like so badly!

  • @liketammysaids it just disgusts me what my european ancestors did to the indigenous australians in paticular in western australia which is where i am from and where the film is based. The days of the Stolen Generation is a bleak and disgraceful period in our history. I am so glad that as a former university history student today that I have learned the truth about australian history and learned from great indigenous historians such as marcia langton and henry briscoe.

  • will always have a place on my view again movies list. Viewed with an open mind this film is so deeply touching. I left the theatre in tears yet felt very affirmed at a cultural level as a Polynesian female.

  • @pizzaface2101 I am deeply in love with Australia and a Brit. I visited Australia twice ...once only 5 years ago. i was backpacking Around Oz for a month. I liked the cities.like Brisy, Sydney, Alice, and Adelaide but the Outback and the Red Centre left a mark in my heart. This clip at 3.17 of Daisy or Gracie running across the scrub brings it all back. I spoke to some of the Aboriginal people. One day spending about 2 hrs with an elder. Unforgettable! Whatever your name is Miss -it is touching!

  • I can say yes those girls really did survive well in the bush but that was because they were raised in the bush. My Grandmother remembers seeing these girls. She thinks she was about 5 or 6 years old. They crossed the farm on which they lived. Apparently my her father( my great grandfather) realized who they were and told them to camp down by the dam. My Gran saw the fire burning into the night and woke at daybreak to go invite them to have breakfast but they were gone.

  • Thats amazing!! You must feel lucky

  • i saw this movie, it's incredible, i love it

  • Aww i love that movie. Its so sad when their sister gets taken. Im just glad they made it back. Those fucking white cunts taken them kids away, its fucken horrible shit =[ . The lil sister is so cute =]

    I love the music, it gose good with the movie =].

  • IF my girls were taken like that I would freaking uppercut the bastard, and kneed him in the face. But if I wasnt successful on doing that and my girls just came back like they did I would say DAMN and hugz them 2 death and would think these girls really wanted thier mother and to get away from that (cult) and those girls in the movie have really good survival skills.

  • SAD  :((((

  • I've read that Moodoo (the Tracker, played by David Gulpilil) was really looking after the children, and that he could have caught them if he wanted to.

  • Absolutely. An Aboriginal tracker with that old knowledge and a lifetimes experience would have tracked them easily. It must also be noted that kids raised in the bush in those days were also taught to hide. How to hide their tracks and such, but he would eventually have got them if he wanted to.

  • i love this music

    i wish someone could upload it onto youtube.

    but i'm just wondering, there in australia one of the hottest places in the world and they choose to wear long sleeved coats over long sleeved dresses.

    wont they get hpt

  • the long sleeves cover their skin from the sunlight so their skin doesn't get hot or burned, and it's airy because the material is thin. Probably better than a T-shirt :)

  • Days Hot. Nights freakin Cold.

  • It's a way of saving the skin from burns, and if you don't protect yourself with clothes you will loose a lot more fluids than you will if you have something outside of the body that can capture the worst of the heat.

  • The abduction scene is this movie is quite possibly the most moving and disturbing scene in any movie I have seen. It is so incredibly difficult to watch, so shameful. I balled my eyes out from that part of the movie onwards. I've never had a movie move me as much as this one. It is absolutely haunting. Thank you for posting.

  • The music is beautiful.

  • You sir are a complete and utter idiot.

    By the way, you misspelled the german philosopher's name in your profile or wtf it is.

    It's SCHOPENHAUER, dumbass.

  • I saw the movie it's unbelievable how hard it must be to walk that long time..!

    They can be proud.. Sooooo proud..!

    I'm sorry for my english I'm german.

  • Comment removed

  • Does anyone know where i can watch the full movie? I love it so much and can't wait to see it again!!

  • actually Triplehlltheway daisy is the youngest and its Gracie who gets taken away, and yes it is heartbreaking to see Gracie captured again. The whole movie is a well done film that does open your eyes to what happened, when I saw it I just couldn't close my eyes and ears. I heard every word and saw every second and read every paragraph of the movie. Its a Real masterpiece

  • i looove this movie! amazingly done.. Yeah, a masterpiece!

  • this movie was well done and very powerful. its hard to watch the abduction scene. its really emotional. peter gabriel also captured the moment of sadness and its just such a great movie. and this is a powerful video.

  • i watched this film at school in english

    and to be hounest it made me sick what they did to such young children.

    it is a remarkable film that really opens your eyes to what use to happen. To think what happend to them children who didnt make it. For exsample thast poor women half way threw the flim who went to camp moore river and was slave for that man!

    it is a real tear jerker...

  • they did it to the africans its sad how the white men treated collorful ppl back then

  • Nothing much has changed here.

  • ditto -.-

  • very sad when daisy gets taken back at the train station amd its a sad movie

  • Beautiful shot of the film is the latest in the figures for the real story, unfortunately, these did not include

    thanks

  • thanks! good job

  • This music is just fantasic!

    The movie is aswell!

  • It's same what's happen to my nation many years ago.

    And maybe we had more badly and sadly live then aboriginal people they took our kids to the camps and kill them one by one

    until they Arrived to our head that makes our breath Poor breathing in this world

    We are Assyrians we came from Assyria and we have been ( 6789 )in this world .

    From the beginning of ( 6789 ) years we were alive .

    And we are alive now .

    And we will be alive until the death

    Assyrians from Assyria

  • I'm a Peter Gabriel fan and I came across this stuff because I don't have the LWH soundrack . It's such a sad thing how racism drives wedges between human beings when we are all human beings. I wish no one disliked anyone else simply because of the color on one's skin. I hate racism from whatever side it's coming from. However I can see the hurt that the actions of whites who claim superiority has caused. I myself am basically white - but I see how people are so angry at their actions.

  • a beautiful piece of music

  • Peter Gabriel hat wieder einen Soundtrack abgeliefert, wo einem die Ameisen über die Arme laufen. Wie auch schon bei Passion und Birdy. 5 Sterne für den Meister, wie immer.

  • This is a true sign of the determination love can drive into the heart of the oppressed. I am so glad that these atrocities have been made public and that there is a man in Australia that isn't afraid to say sorry to the indigenous people of Australia. God Bless you Kevin and God Bless those that are affected by the stolen generation, and that is all Australians Black and White. Lets make the next Two hundred years better by working as one Country to mend the past. Shame on you Howard.

  • Angels protected these little girls to make such a unbelievable journey, I doubt many men today could do what they did thru the outback much less as little children. Their spirit of love was stronger than anything imaginable..... Love is very powerful!

  • Thank you my dear friend to share this video with me. It´s truly heartbreaking. And I agree with you. Love is the mightiest power on earth.

    Only love and compassion make life worth living.

    Without it´s like living in a vacuum.

    Much love to you and your family.

  • My Grandmother hated whites and she told us that when she was little they nearly starved to death on the Reservation and when her mother was young they had diseases spread by the Indian Burea, such as chicken pox, tyhpus,measles and other deadly diseases to get rid of them, then they tried to starve them to death. Just a different approach by the Australian Goverment, Shame should be on all who participated and many are still alive! And people think the only Monsters were Hitler and Stalin!

  • Dont be fooled they were not misguided, this was an act of genocide, to get rid of the race of Aboriginals and they have tried that in America and this is not misguided stupidity on the whites its a determined effort and they did not care what it did to the families, there are stories of terribel abuse to many of these children, and it wasnt in the name of religion either altho they use that excuse also, They needed to be saved, yea right! Saved from the white man and his perfect ways.

  • Amazing video must see if havent yet

  • first movie i ever cried while watching it. and one of the reasons to spend 5 months of my life in oz <3. wanna go back there...

  • where was she when she was taken ? gracie i mean

  • at a train station

    she was hoping to catch a train to where her mum was

  • It's amazing how misguided some of the whites back then were! They actually thought that they were doing these children a favor by taking them away from their families and their roots! Sad!

  • "most" of the whites were misguided back then and alot still are today.

  • I have seen the film and I have read the book as well... and I have to say that I start crying when I see a vid like that. You must think about the situation and actually the story is based on a true incident. xD

  • disgusting and pitiful pieces of history that make you wonder what kind of idiots think that the colour of your skin makes you inferior and no matter how many of us hate this shameful treatment it is a part of our history that shows just how low and pathetic the human race can be to eachother. Shameful and disgusting mark on australian history and to hell with those that saw nothing wrong with this act of ignorance and punishment nothing was positive about it =/ shame shame shame XD

  • I saw this movie a couple of days ago in class. I was seriously about to cry. Me and my friend were litterly yelling at the TV. I loved this movie. It's super sad. ):

  • i love this movie im watching it in school right now

  • I like this film.

  • thanks for putting this on youtube. its good to know and see other ppl intrested in our issuse'. means alot. thank u.

  • great video....sad episode was this...and to think it went on for all them years....

    seems fitting to have both the master and humanitarian Peter Gabriel Doing the sounds

    best soundtrack in the unverse....i have seen P Gabriel twice...he.s the best

    he's is after all...the man who gave us 'Biko the presence of Biko live...in a stadium full of people is emotional to say the least

  • This film made me cry today... I wtched it in school and I couldn´t stiop to cry. This scene were they get took away from their mother.. so saf! :`(

  • Usually, I do cry. When I saw it...I got ANGRY. Angry instead of just sad.

    It was rare for me to feel anger first, sadness later.

  • i feel u man

  • Were they training those girls how to be slaves or be put with white families?

  • a little of both, I believe, but ultimately grow up and "mate" with white men to eliminate their heritage AND color

  • I was so sad when Gracie was taken. At least i think her name was Gracie.

  • It seems to me (as this film also shows) the only worthwhile achievements in life come from the experience of overcoming hardship. It may very well be we are all on this planet in order to learn how to live, suffer & die, but also to develop spiritually as much as we can.

    We are all each day closer to our journey back home. I wish "happy trails" to you & all.

  • I love your take on life and its apparent, meaningless suffering, Aetopus. It is infinitely optimistic and deeply spiritual.

    Love your user name too, btw. ;)

  • Can't believe I found this movie here. This movie is a treasure & the soundtrack is outstanding. A thousand thanks to Princessportent for sharing this.

  • I'm glad you liked it (the movie, that is). It's always wonderful to find another person who loves these sorts of movies...and cares about setting things right. And I found the soundtrack so hauntingly beautiful...I was talking about it for a long time afterward. :)

  • This is a true story, one of thousands of told and untold stories, of the plight of children who were stolen away from their parents.

    Deliberately to cut them off from their culture and to 'breed them out' to become 'white'. Usually these children were exploited and abused by their charges. Unfortunately for some, the psychological implications evidently became a part of the dysfunction across generations of Aboriginal families.

  • I watched the movie a couple days ago. It says 1931...

  • and the music is WONDERFUL!! does anybody know where i can download it?

  • one of my fav movies and the first one i cried whilst watching it

  • Ein großer Film mit gigantischer Musik.

  • can u describe how the jigalong depot is please

  • I read 1930's somewhere. I'll double check.

  • nevermind! i just realized that the two people who they hug in the dark are probably their parents. i'm an idiot and now i can't wait to see the movie!

  • The two people are Molly and Daisy's grandmother and mother

  • it's well worth watching

  • i would really like to watch the movie, but i'll get too upset if they die in the end, so cuold someone just tell me the ending so i don't waste two hours and end up depressed?

  • watch the rest of the movie love

  • SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FILM ;'( X

  • The film is moving - then the very end....

    Thanks for making this!
