“In the old days, there weren’t any whites and we lived our lives hunting with our yãmĩyxop spirits. But then the whites came, cut down the forests, dried up the rivers and scared the animals off. Today, there are no more tall trees, the whites have surrounded us and we have very little land. But our yãmĩyxop are strong and they have taught us stories and songs from the people who used to live here.” The fruit of a collaboration between Maxakali and non-Indigenous filmmakers, this documentary shows how the Maxakali people have resisted the destruction and seizure of their property, from the early days of colonisation to the present.
