Smoke signals, animal totems, initiation practices, the law of the land and specifically how the indigenous Aboriginal Australians lived in harmony with the land and animals for hundreds of thousands of years.

Recorded on the land of the Gubbi Gubbi tribe in eastern Australia,
we join an elder on top of a mountain where smoke signals were used
between surrounding tribes for communication. We learn about the
numerous similarities between Indigenous Aboriginal Australians and
the First Nations Peoples of the Americas. We then walk down into
the jungle to sit on the edge of a creek beside an ancient path
which dates back tens of thousands of years. Sitting alongside
numerous artifacts, we learn about initiation practices, animal
totems, the law of the land and specifically how the indigenous
Aboriginal Australians lived in harmony with the land and animals
for hundreds of thousands of years prior to the arrival of Captain
Cook. Alex Bond is a descendant of one of the last chiefs in this
area of Australia, he is an activist, musician and storyteller.
