The amazing performers of the Bangarra Dance Theatre take us to places that transcend words. It’s fitting that Wayne Blair and Nel Minchin’s documentary about the group’s history and formation – including the story of artistic director Stephen Page and his family – is crafted with a sense of motion and movement, almost as if it too is dancing. Understanding that this is a story hooked to many things – including art, expression and of course Indigenous culture, both ancient and modern – they create a beguiling kind of history lesson.
