[engine fades]
[officer] Murra, we need to make
some serious changes
around here, OK?
But I want you to think about
your future, alright,
what being independent means.
Maybe... maybe that's without
Mum for a little while, OK?
- I'm not staying here.
- No, you're not.
I've organised
for you to go away.
It's some kind of photo safari
for at-risk kids.
- Mental cases?
- No, for kids like you, Murra.
I'm not going.
Hey.
You're my niece
and I love you, alright?
But we've run out
of options here.

Everything OK?
You want some breakfast?
Well, get ready, then.
[mouths]
[people chattering]
[woman] Oi!
Ya cheeky buggers!
- [people murmuring]
- Hello, everyone.
My name is Fernando Castillo.
Feel free to call me Nando
if that's easier for you.
I'm a youth worker and
the photography team leader.
You guys have met
my colleague Mitch.
Look, guys, I just wanted to say
I know you may seem to feel
a little bit nervous
about our seven days travelling
to the Pilbara country,
but I want to...
to promise to you guys
and I want to assure you
that we are going to create
something wonderful
on our road trip together...
with this,
but more importantly this,
to capture poignant moments
with these magnificent beauties,
embracing the old
to re-examine our place
in this constantly changing
world in which we live in,
which is why
I'm going to remind you
that all gadgets,
including mobile phones,
are going to be
excluded from the trip.
Well, you know,
we want you to look at the world
through a lens, not a screen.
So here's to you guys,
the time that we are
going to have together
and, uh, our brave
new adventure.
[scattered applause]
[Fernando] Yeah, we can clap.
We can clap. Yeah.
OK. That's it.
You text me every hour, OK?
- Hey...
- No, not here.
Mum?
Keep your hands
off my man, yeah?
[woman] Shut ya trap, Kylie!
Get on the bus.
Tell 'em straightaway
if you start to feel...
sad, OK?
You'll be right.
Alright, be safe, listen to
country and stay out of trouble.
[sighs]
[Mitch] Glad you
could join us, Murra.
Mitch, uh, lovely to put
a face to the name.
Thank you for doing this
at short notice.
Oh, no worries, no worries.
Oh, you're lucky
you got a good uncle.
He worked a small miracle
to get you on the bus.
Yeah, so lucky.
She's actually
a really good kid.
We've only caught her
shoplifting the one time.
[Fernando] OK, guys,
come together for
our first group photo.
- [Mitch] Alright, in you get.
- [kids chatter and laugh]
Hey, get in there.
Yeah. Close.
Close, close, close!
OK.
[camera beeps]
[Mitch] Wait for it.
[camera clicks]
Did that work?
- [Fernando] Yeah. It's great.
- Great.
Uh-uh-uh! Not so fast, Elvis.
Your phones.
Alright, give 'em here.
I promise
you are going to survive.
Uh, but what are we
gonna do for music?
You see, there's this mystical
device called a radio.
- [scoffs]
- Come on.
Thank you.
Sean, thank you.
Kylie.
It's OK, Murra.
Your Uncle Ian will let us know
if there's any news
from your mum.
Alright, in you go.
[bus engine starts]
- [Mitch] Let's do this!
- [Fernando] Whoo-hoo! Vamos!
[woman] Cadjup, you mob!
['Pukulpa' by Electric Fields]
['Pukulpa' continues]
['Pukulpa' continues on radio]
[woman on radio] You're with
Sandy Dann across the Pilbara.
We're moving to a chilly
27 degrees out there.
Might be time to get
those jumpers out.
[Fernando] Listen,
these cameras have film inside,
but each roll of film
takes only 24 photos.
- So we have to be selective.
- [Kylie] These are stupid.
[Fernando] Maybe different
is what you mean, no?
No, I meant stupid.
Yeah, what's the point?
I mean, you have
to really consider
each photo that
you choose to take.
This is not like with
the smartphones where it's...
[clicks rapidly]
point and shoot frenzy.
You know, like, you have
to stop and take the time
to see the story
that is in front of you.
- Like...
- [camera whirrs]
the 'Ball Breaker'?
- [camera clicks]
- [Mitch] You watch it.
[Fernando chuckles]
Yeah. That is the title.
But, uh, what is the story
behind our 'Ball Breaker'?
Because, remember,
every picture has a story.
My grandad used to play
the didgeridoo.
He would say, "This is
our story, not a tune."
Yeah. I mean, that... that is it.
The camera
will be our instrument
for telling our stories.
She's going to be a natural, no?
[chuckles]
[laughs weakly]
[Fernando] OK, so we want you
to take this time now
to play around with the cameras.
Remember that your vision,
your heart,
this is what creates
a great photo, in my opinion.
[Mitch] Alright, everybody,
let's pack up our chairs.
We gotta hit the road.
['Aboriginal Woman' by
Bart Willoughby plays on radio]
[kids chattering indistinctly]
[Elvis] Flasher than these ones.
[Elvis continues chattering]
You is rich, boy!
Aboriginal woman,
she's here to stay
Aboriginal woman,
never fade away...
[Elvis] Work it, Kylie.
[Kylie] Elvis,
get out of my shot!
[Elvis] How do you
look at the photos?
[Sean speaks indistinctly]
[Kylie] Sean, my God,
if you don't stop
kicking the back of my seat...
- [thudding]
- [Kylie] Sean, I'm serious.
- Fuck off!
- [Sean] Sorry.
These seats are uncomfortable.

on the release of her
new album 'Shapes',
a mixture of country

[Kylie] Does anyone
have any snacks? Anything?
[door lock beeps]

- Come this way.
- [Fernando] Yeah, you go.
Hey, Uncle.
I'm Mitch Kotonel.
- Yeah, I'm from over east way.
- You sure?
You look like
different mob to me.
True? Yeah, well,
I grew up that way.
But, um, my mum,
she's still looking for her mob.
Yeah? You look
after yourself, my girl.
- You got family here.
- [woman] Hey, girl.
- Thanks, Uncle.
- No worries.
OK, you mob be good, now.

- [woman 2] See ya!
OK, chicos!
Kylie, try to keep up
with the group, please.
Ai yi yi!
I put new film inside
your cameras.
This is our first stop.
Remember, we want you
to use the cameras
to explore the landscape.
We're going to meet back here
at the bus in two hours.
[Mitch] Watch out for snakes!
Stick with me.
I eat snakes for breakfast.
Weet-Bix are for weak bits.
[Elvis chuckles]
Was that
your grandfather before?
Gran's mum's brother's son.
Our families are
the same like that.
So big and so wonderful.
[camera clicks and whirrs]
Same, same.
[Fernando] Yeah. Same, same.

[Mitch] Hey!
Are you serious?
Look at where we are.
Country offers you so much
and this is how you treat it?
I'm sorry, Aunty.
- Sorry.
- Sorry.
[Mitch] You mob got

Don't waste it.

So go and explore

I got a better idea.
Oi, can you help me?

[footsteps approach]
You get me a goon bag?
Yeah, sure. Sweet.
[woman] There you go, Simmo.
Enjoy your lolly water.
[Simmo] Yeah.
[Simmo] You drinking alone?
[Elvis] My cousin
used to have a BMX.
It was red,
so I went really fast.
[laughter]

- [Kylie] Settle down!
[Elvis] Save some for us.
- I've never been kissed.
- [Elvis] What?
Don't look at me,
you little perve.
[laughs] Yeah, Sean.
Kylie's only got
eyes for me, hey?
Uh, uh, uh, uh.
You couldn't handle this, Elvis.
Come on, Murra.
Help a brother out.
Go away. You look like
one of my cousins.
[laughter]
[Kylie] Hey, if, uh,
Fernando looked like a cousin,
I'd still pash him.
- [Murra] Gross!
- [Elvis chuckles]
[Kylie] You're a virgin, I see.
How boring.
Yeah, you're not, I see.
How boring.
I call this one the Elvis dance.
- [Kylie] Oh, my God.
- [laughter]
Dad reckons
I came out feet-first.
- Howling like a hound dog.
- [Kylie] You're so embarrassing.
He said, "That's an 'Elvis'
right there for sure."
[Kylie] Stop it.
[Sean] My entire
family's called 'Sean',
just boring old 'Sean'.
But your name is so beautiful.
Murra! [laughs]
It's Rumurra.
It means 'the sun'.
My mum said I was her sunshine.
Murra! Oh, Murra!
- [Murra] Oh, God.
- [Kylie] Shut up!
- [Elvis beatboxes]
- [Sean continues singing]
- [Kylie] Oh, my God!
- [Murra] Stop it!
- Sit down!
- Oh, Murra, sunshine!
Why are we all here, then,
if our poxy parents
are so great?
Why do dingoes howl
with their eyes closed?
Try it.
[all howl]
[laughter]
- [dogs bark and howl]
- [Kylie] Shit.
- [Elvis] Yo, run!
- [Murra] Run!
- [Kylie] Go, go, go, go, go!
- [Murra] Hurry up!
['Stealing From Tomorrow'

Cross your face
Coming on,

So stupid! You're stupid!
- Oh, don't be a baby.
- Don't call me that!
Well, that's what you are,
a crybaby.
Why are you even here anyways?
'Cause I think about

Hey, Sean, bud, are you right?
Sean, wait up.
[camera clicks and whirrs]

Hey, what happened?
In the pool?
Nothing.
Let's go.

I mean, Jesus Christ,
it's not even the first day.
Just... just give us
one more chance, please.
[Fernando] Why?
The camera.
You said every picture
has a story.
Maybe we have one.
[Mitch] So you'd each
take responsibility
of keeping each other on track?
[all] Yes.
Because if one of you,
just one of you messes up,
you're all gone.
- You understand?
- [Elvis] Yes, Aunty.
- Yes, Mitch.
- Yes, Aunty.
[Mitch] Oh, Jesus, help me.
Alright, let's go. Come on.

['Roadtrain' by Pigram Brothers
plays on radio]
Unfolding like a flower
Dewdrop in the dawn
Rising like a mountain...
Hey, are you OK?
I just want you to know,
for whatever reason
if you feel like you need to
talk to someone, I'm here, OK?
OK.
Starting to rise now
My shadow's up the wall
And I'm rolling
like a roadtrain
Four dogs and 30 tonne
Gliding like a mountain
Towards the blazing sun
Sun...
[Mitch] Alright, gang,
here's our home
for the next two nights.
[Fernando] OK, chicos,
let's set up the tents.
- [wind rustles]
- [birds call]
[people chatter in distance]
[camera whirrs and clicks]
- [Kylie] That's it.
- [camera clicks]
[Mitch] What youse doing?
Come on! This tent's
not gonna build itself!
We've still got dinner to cook.
[Sean] OK, so we just need
to fold it up for the night
and I think we're pretty good.
[Elvis] And, of course,
I'm a proud Pilbara breed.
I got family everywhere.
I'm deadly, as you can see.
I like fishing, hunting
and my culture.
And I love reggae music.
[group exclaim]
- [Fernando] Like Bob Marley?
- Yeah.
[Mitch] So who's up next? Kylie?
I'm a Cancer.
I like walks in the park
and setting fire to things.
[Sean] Cancer is above us now,
uh, right over there
by the moon.
- See?
- [Mitch] Hmph.
[Elvis] Old Man Emu's up there
too, hidden in the Milky Way.
Can you guys see?
[Kylie] Oh, yeah. Cool.
[Elvis] I had to follow
Old Man Emu to get home once.
- [fire crackles]
- [owl hoots]
[Fernando] OK.
I'll have a turn now.
I was born in Nicaragua,
but, uh, when I was very young,
my parents and I,
we had to leave from there
for some very
complicated reasons.
But, uh, my mother was a very
well-known photographer
and my father was a journalist.
So I was lucky enough
to... to travel
and... and to live in
many, many different places.
And in the process of that time,
she passed her love
of photography on to me.
Photography allowed me
to express what I was feeling.
Hence why I love to pass
my love of photography
on to you guys.
Things that I love?
Photography, of course. [laughs]
And mountains.
I, uh... I like mountains.
[Kylie] I think you forgot to
mention the word 'photography'.
- Ahh! [chuckles]
- [Elvis] Good one, Kylie.
May I go to bed now?
You know you don't
have to ask that, man.
God, why didn't you
say that earlier?
Hey, hey, hey! Dishes. Come on.
[Fernando] I was about to
get the marshmallows out.
- [Mitch] Mm-hm. More for us.
- [Fernando laughs] Yeah.
Hey, take that for me, please.

Hello, ancestors.
Waiba old people.
I'm Mitch, Michelle Kotonel.
Um, I come here with respect,
with a good heart
and I ask that
I have safe passage
and safe passage for our friends
on your beautiful country.
Come over.
Get a rock.
Rub it and make sure
you get your sweat on it.
[Kylie] Why your sweat?
[Elvis] So ancestors
will recognise you.
[Kylie] Huh! Cool.
Never done this before.
So I, uh...
wanted to get you started
on the manual cameras.
Here. Hold onto this.
What a place to learn, huh?
- [Elvis] Work it, Kylie.
- OK, chicos!
We're going to head off
into the gorges.
- Who's coming?

The waterfall.

So here now, you see how
it is AF? That is auto focus.
So that's what
you have been using
for the time that
we have been on the trip.
- But if I come down...
- Mm-hm.
- it's manual focusing.
- Can I see?
[Fernando] Yeah, of course.
- Can you teach me sometime?
- Yes. Yes, of course.
I can teach all of you.
[Sean] Awesome. Thanks so much.
OK. Let's go.

He knows where we are.
Come on. The water's so nice.
[Fernando] OK, then. Yeah.
It'll be nice to cool down
while we wait for Sean.
Stay like that for a second.
[camera clicks]
What does the photo
say about me?
What's my story?
It's called 'Little Hero'.
You are strong.
And brave.
I'm not that little.
Murra, you have the wrong idea.
I'm sorry.
We have to go.
Come on. Get your
things, please.
[Fernando pants]
[breathes shakily]
[Fernando shouts] Sean!
Sean!
Sean! Sean!
[Fernando pants]
[Mitch] This is too late, mate.
Any darker and it
gets dangerous.
I know.
- Is Sean here?
- No.
Everybody, grab a torch.
We have one hour
until it gets dark.
Fernando, Elvis,
you head out that way.
Kylie, you're with me.
Murra, you stay here.
- [Fernando] Elvis, come with me.
- [Mitch] Come on, come on!
- Let's hustle!
- [Fernando] Now!

Sean!
- [Elvis] Sean!
- [Fernando] Sean!
- Sean, Sean...
- [Mitch] Are you alright?
- [Fernando] Are you OK?
- [Kylie] What happened?
[Mitch] Are you hurt, bub?
You, with me.
What happened?
Did you just fucking leave him?
- No, he stopped following us.
- God, you are such a bitch.
How would you feel
if we abandoned you?
Been there, done that,
so back the fuck off.
- Oh, you want to go?!
- [Elvis] Let's go.
- Get off me!
- Let's go!
[Kylie] I am over
all of this. I am done!

What are you doing?
Where are you going?
Kylie! Stop!
Don't act like you give a shit.
I can't get reception out here.
He loses his mind
if I don't text back.
Well, that's his problem.
You don't know fuck all
about fuck all.
You're just a stupid virgin
giving love eyes to Fernando.
- I'm doing what, bitch?
- OK. That's enough.
Give me the phone, Kylie.
No.
Murra, back to the tent, please.
[birds tweeting]
[Mitch] Hey, are you alright?
Yeah.
I've been sleeping
on my back again.
Well, we're headed out today.
Give the spirits
some peace and quiet, hey?
Now, why don't you
go wake up Sean?
[Elvis] Buddy,
are you awake? Sean?
[zipper buzzes]
Where is she?
You kids, you're not making it
easier for us, true God.
[sighs] We knew that
coming on board.
Now, her I can read.
You, not so much.
I've been watching you,
walking around with your camera,
giving everyone
and everything a story.
And I wonder, what's yours?
Do you think you're here just
'cause we needed to fill a seat?
'Cause what's next
after this, Murra?
What do you want?

- [Murra grunts]
- [Elvis] Hey!
- What the hell are you doing?
- We're on the same team, idiot!
- Are we?!
He's not that into you, Murra.
He's being nice to you.
- That's all.
- [Mitch] OK, that's enough.
- Everyone needs to relax now.
- You know what?
You're just a jealous loser
with a paedo boyfriend.
And you are the one who's
made this all about dick.

- [Sean] Hello?
[Kylie] Where the hell are they?
[Elvis] Maybe they got abducted.
- [Murra] Not funny, Elvis.
- I can't believe they did this.
[Murra] How could
we not hear them leave?
[Sean] People die
like this all the time.
[Kylie] Screw this.
I am outta here.
Uh, I think they went that way.
[Sean] You shouldn't do that.
You should never
leave your vehicle.
- What vehicle, idiot?
- [Elvis whistles]
- [camera whirrs and clicks]
- [chuckles]
I call this one 'Smash It Out'.
You kids wanna argue?
Wanna fight?
Go on, then. Smash it out.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Now, let's show this mob
what Pilbara breed be like.
Let's go.
[Sean] This is hardly
enough water.
- [Murra] This is not gonna last.
- [Sean] There's water somewhere.
We just need shopping gear.

This'll do.

I know how this ends.

That was pretty hot.
You can't handle
all this, Kylie.

['Come On!!!' continues]
[Kylie] That was delicious.
- Who'd have thought it?
- [Sean laughs]
[Elvis] Yeah, there's big mob
tucker out there.
Next time, we'll go my country.
We've got oysters bigger
than the size of your hand.
[Elvis] Ooh!
[Sean] I can't wait to do that.
[all] Me too.
Gather 'round.

- 'The Deadlyz',
- [Kylie laughs] Yes, we are.
- [Sean] Deadlyz. I love it.
- [Elvis] That's us.
[Sean] 'Deadly' is good, right?
I'm sorry, Elvis.
I never asked why
you were here, brother.
[inhales and exhales deeply]
I was walking back home
and a couple of blokes grabbed
me and took me outta town.
They roughed me up pretty bad.
And then they
left me there to die.
Like, really die.
I haven't left
my community since.
I guess I just wasn't ready.
But I'm really glad that I did.
[Sean] I'm glad we're
fricken here too together.
- [all laugh]
- [Elvis] Hey, look out.
Swearing. Good go.
I'm Rumurra Nagula.
I like strolls along the beach
and chocolate mint ice-cream
and photography.
[Kylie blows raspberry]
[both chuckle]
I'm sorry I've been
such a dickhead.
The truth is...
my mum abandoned me.
Has on and off
ever since I was a little girl.
I suppose that's why I'm here.
And a little run-in
with some frozen goods.
[Elvis] Munga frozen goods.
[chuckles]
[Murra] But I felt invisible
for a long time now.
I'd do stupid things
just so Mum would see me...
and wouldn't leave me again.
But you guys see me.
And this camera...
it's given me a story.
I'm Rumurra Nagula.

And I'm gonna be OK.

- [Kylie] Why would you do that?

[Mitch] We weren't

We were just up the river.

Oh, no, sorry.
