Bandjil - Original Women of Australia

"Bandjil" and "Djambul" are Aboriginal words for "Woman" in two neighbouring tribes in the North Queensland Wet Tropics around Cairns. BANDJIL is a short experimental documentary film on Australian Indigenous women. It provides a woman's perspective on how it feels and what it looks like to carry Indigenous culture forward in the context of modern Australia.
It was developed and produced by two women who met in Australia during one's traveling and share a deep interest in learning from and share the most ancient surviving culture on this planet.

BANDJIL is going to be screened at Laura Festival on 30/06, 01/07, 02/07 2017. Further information on co-director, co-producer, camera operator and video editor Silvia Storchi on www.silviastorchi.com
