Don't miss this important Australian film!
Toni Collette… "I urge everyone to watch Kanyini.
It is entirely compelling and incredibly important."
George Negus... "Anyone coming cold to the story of Australia's Indigenous
disgrace will no longer be ignorant after seeing this beautifully shot film and
hearing Uncle Bob tell it the way it is, with such personal passion, political
insight, incredible lucidity, dignity and somehow even humour."
Deborah Mailman... "My wish...that everyone go see this film. Uncle Bob just
tells it like it is. Simply, beautifully and with a light heart. A special film
that tells an "open truth"
that should have been told a very long time ago."
Justice Marcus Einfeld..."Bob's and Melanie's extraordinary sensitivity and
talent have joined forces to create a groundbreaking and beautiful film that has
the unique potential to bring non-Indigenous Australians closer to their
Indigenous brothers and sisters and to help all of us to understand 'who we are'
and 'where we belong'. If a film were ever made to reshape or underwrite the
national identity of Australians, KANYINI would be it."
“We have one mother – this land we’re living on and taking everything from her,
is our mother. That makes you and me brother and sister”. Bob Randall
