Kamarrang of the Bordoh clan introduces himself and the Narbalek band to us. They come from Manmoyi, 200 kms from Oenpelli in Arnhem Land. Kamarrang tells us how the band has been established to teach the children the traditional songs, just as the older people taught his generation. A song plays over footage of the country and children playing. Kamarrang tells us that one day it will be the children’s turn to take over from the present generation.
Curator’s notes
An important issue is communicated gently, as Kamarrang tells us how the band was formed to help pass on knowledge and responsibility to the next generation.
