Australian filmmaker Rolf de Heer directed the first major motion picture shot entirely in an indigenous Aboriginal language. It's an enchanting and wholly symbolic film that journeys with ten Aborigine tribesmen from Arnhem Land on their yearly hunt for goose eggs in the wetlands. One young warrior, Dayindi, covets one of his older brother's wives. Learning of this, Minygululu tells him a parable about impulsive desires, and this allegorical tale runs throughout the story, evolving with the characters and ultimately enveloping the narrative. This fresh story within a story within a story structure is one of the many reasons 10 Canoes won a Special Jury Prize at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival. In Aboriginal with English subtitles. David Gulpilil narrates in English.
