Ten Canoes

Australia

This was a combination ethnographic/drama piece. Told in the form of an ancient cultural story handed down for generations intended to carry messages for contemporary aboriginal people, it also worked as entertainment for the rest of us.

Shot on location with naked native players this quickly came to seem like a you-are-there account. The sheer differentness easily held my attention. Worth it.
