Boodjara

Boodjara (Country, belonging to) follows a group of Noongar people (Aboriginal people of South Western Australia) on a powerful journey to revive their endangered language, reclaim ancestral placenames, and reconnect with stories and lore embedded in the Boodja (Country).

Filmed over 18 months by Noongar filmmaker Hugh Sando, this intimate documentary is a story of cultural revival, truth-telling, and reconciliation - set against the backdrop of Australia's failed 2023 Voice referendum.

Boodjara is a moving testament to the strength, resilience and enduring spirit of Noongar culture.
