Clip description

TJ (Dean Daley-Jones) travels north until he arrives in a small town and meets a warm and welcoming old man, Uncle Black (Douglas Macale). He is invited to a party, where adults and children are listening and dancing to the music of the Travelling Kimberley Songmen.

Curator’s notes

by Liz McNiven

This clip shows TJ arriving in the small town where his son lives. The vibe of the people in the town contrasts greatly with the pace of the city. The people are warm and welcoming and pleased to invite TJ into their community.

The soundtrack, composed and performed by Stephen and Alan Pigram with Alex Lloyd, synergises perfectly with the imagery, conveying the emotions of the characters and infusing the landscape with meaning. Stephen and Alan Pigram and five of their brothers make up the seven-piece country folk-rock band The Pigram Brothers. Four of the brothers perform music in the film.
