The Darling river, or “Barka” as it is known to the Barkindji people, is part of the longest river system in Australia. It is also historically a significant cultural resource for the indigenous people who have lived by its shores for millenia as well as a more recent source of significant amounts of water for Australian agriculture. This film explores how the landscape in Wilcannia, once a major inland port along the Darling in remote NSW, is changing for both people and nature as the river’s future becomes uncertain due to climate change, mismanagement and drought. The scenes ebb and flow together in open-ended inquiry into the experience of indigenous and non-indigenous humans, animals and the river, in order to challenge audiences to achieve a more nuanced understanding of this phenomenon.
