Ten Canoes
From Rolf de Heer and Peter Djigirr

IMDB

Quote :
A story within a story. In Australia's Northern Territory, a man tells us one of the stories of his people and his land. It's a story of an older man, Minygululu, who has three wives and realizes that his younger brother Dayindi may try to steal away the youngest wife. So, over a few days and several trips to hunt and gather, Minygululu tells Dayindi a story set in the time of their ancestors when a stranger came to the village and disrupted the lives of a serious man named Ridjimiraril, his three wives, and his younger brother Yeeralparil who had no wife and liked to visit his youngest sister-in-law. Through stories, can values be taught and balance achieved?

Not bad but I was expecting better. It is a bit too slow and repetive. The cinematography is good, some moments are nice and funny but overall, I didn't really get hooked by it.

And maybe what didn't help was that we were missing subtitles so we couldn't understand the aboriginals Razz
