In the beginning Creation beings lifted the sky and soft world out of the sea. Then the earth became hard - British colonisation in 1863, slavery during the subsequent Pearling boom, the devastating mining booms of the 1960s...The story of the indomitable spirit of the Aboriginal people of Roebourne, north-western Australia - their law, their tribal voice, their continuing struggle against the new colonial forces of the 20th century.
