Synopsis
There was no more terrible part of our 19th century than the herding together of broken tribes under authority into settlements and institutions as substitute homes. For the Gamilaroi people of MacIntyre River it began in 1912 with the formulation of Euroba Reserve on the northern border of NSW. Through the eyes of three generations of women we follow these people over the last 90 years on a journey of survival against oppression and loss of culture.
