’ ’ Australia Australia, ’ Indigenous Australians Australia ‘’ ‘’ Australia, ‘’’ Australia “Kahlin Half” Home, Olivia O ’ Brien The concept of the Dreaming is often addressed in Australia as it is how Nullah was taught by King George to make sense of the world. An example of this is when Lady Sarah Ashley tries to comfort Nullah after his mother died and she sings him Somewhere Over the Rainbow from The Wizard of Oz. Nullah interprets the song to have something to do with a Dreaming story about ‘ The Rainbow Serpent ’ and that the wizard of Oz is a magic-man like his grandfather, King George. Nullah later uses ‘ black-fella magic ’ like his King George taught him to ‘ sing Lady Ashley to him ’ when he was on Mission Island. This scene shows outsiders to Australia how large a part the Aboriginal culture plays in the Indigenous Australian ’ s everyday lives. Another aspect of Indigenous Australian culture expressed in the film is the concept of ‘ walkabout ’ . The definition of walkabout is ‘ a rite of passage during which male Australian Aborigines would undergo a journey during adolescence and live in the wilderness for a period as long as six months ’ . It is famous rite of passage that represents the coming of age. Originating over fifty-thousand years ago, thirteen year old boys were sent out into the land of their ancestors by themselves and had to survive for about six months. It is a spiritual journey and once in the wild, the boys follow the songlines left by their ancestors which include marks in the sky or on the land. Walkabout is a time of reflection and testing of oneself and once they return to their tribe, they have become men. In Australia Nullah ’ s grandfather, King George is continuously encouraging him to go on walkabout. Nullah, being a half-caste, is pulled between two worlds as Lady Sarah Ashley, who is taking care of him, tells Nullah not to go. At the beginning of the film, Nullah is about eleven or twelve so he is very close the appropriate age of experiencing walkabout. Throughout the entire movie, King George appears to Nullah subtly in the distance, telling him that it is almost time. Lady Ashley believes that Nullah is only a child and that participating on such a risky journey is not reasonable for a boy of his age. Drover tries to remind her multiple times that Nullah is not like other boys, he is Aboriginal and has his own responsibilities to his people. Nullah runs away at one point in Australia and begins his walkabout but he is interrupted by the authorities who capture him and take him to Mission Island. In the last scene of the movie, King George appears to Nullah and tells him that it is time and Lady Ashley, now understanding of his differences, allows him to leave. Knowledge of the land Indigenous Australians are famous for their culture, religious beliefs and their knowledge of the land. For thousands of years Aboriginal people survived in the Australian landscape relying on their intricate knowledge of the land and its plants and animals. Knowledge was passed on from generation to generation so that the priceless information of survival in Australia ’ s harsh climate, was never lost or forgotten. Tracking and hunting, digging for water and maintaining surface waters were just some of the ways that people survived the harsh desert environment and in turn developed important knowledge about ecological processes.
