Summary |
Provides personal accounts of the forcible removal of indigenous children from their families. Through these stories of survivors of the stolen generations, musician and performer Archie Roach reconstructs his own story as a child removed from his family. Archie's journey around Australia symbolises the search for wholeness and identity. In a modest and non-judgemental way, Archie reveals a path towards the healing of broken circles while, at the same time rediscovering truth, integrity and mateship as national values |
