What connection to country means, and how deeply it is ingrained into first nation's culture and identity.
The effects of colonisation.
How Torres Strait Islander and Aboriginal art, language and culture continue to hold significant value and tradition today.

Our favourite quotable moment:
"You know what I like to hear the most? It's when someone says, 'I really haven't thought about it that way. I knew this stuff was around, but the way that you've positioned that, I actually understand now.'" - Jason Timor (8:57)
