You and Me Murrawee

We see through the eyes of a young girl camping on the river with her family, life as it would have been for Murrawee, an aboriginal girl who lived there two hundred years ago. Murrawee is friend and guide as we experience the rhythms of one day.

‘We walk this same brown earth, you and me, Murrawee. Past the ancient granite rocks, we run down the slope to the river, hearts beating in time. I follow your bare footsteps.’
