Showing Melbourne to Maningrida

"Legendary Yolngu actor David Gulpilil takes a tour of Melbourne as a young man."

In 1973, fresh from his performance in Walkabout, a film that brought outback landscapes to urban audiences, Gulpilil returned the favour by paying a visit to Melbourne with camera in hand, shooting a wry fly-on-the-wall documentary that compares the sights and sounds of the city to those of his home in Arnhem Land.
