Yolngu Boy
2001, 83 minutes, Rated M
Three boys. One skin. One dream. Milika, Botj and Lorrpu are three Yolngu (aboriginal) kids from the Top End of Australia - homeboys in a hood a thousand miles from anywhere! Caught in a collision between the brave new world of rap, football, street cred and the oldest living culture on earth, the three teenagers defy the law and embark on an epic journey to chase their dreams and confront their futures. Australian screen legend Jack Thompson joins a cast of impressive newcomers in Yolngu Boy, an exciting and moving drama shot entirely in Arnhem Land, Darwin and Kakadu. A unique film that explores the bonds of friendship between three teenagers on the verge of manhood.
