i care about things.

these are some of the stories, films, and movements that move me ———— voices that honour land, culture, and connection.

each holds something i care deeply about: truth, slowness, respect, and the quiet beauty of people living in rhythm with the earth.

  • help save minjerribah headland

    The scenic and natural beauty of the Minjerribah Point Lookout headland on North Stradbroke Island is under threat.

    The North Gorge Walk is not the place for buildings or intrusive structures.
    Think of the birds, the whales, the dolphins, the turtles.
    The serenity, the cliffs, the trees, the quiet.
    This headland deserves protection that cannot be revoked.

    Please help protect this land — once it’s changed, it’s changed forever.

  • watch. water is life.

    This story feels close to home. Filmed in the region of our family’s home village in Morocco, Movement on Road 96 tells the story of a community’s struggle for their right to water. a right as essential and sacred as breath itself.

    It captures the strength and resilience of those who live in rhythm with the land, yet must still fight to protect what has always been theirs. Watching it, I’m reminded how deeply water connects us all — carrying memory, survival, and belonging.

    A story of endurance, dignity, and the unbreakable bond between people and the earth that sustains them.

  • watch. the beach.

    A quiet and tender film by Warwick Thornton, The Beach captures the beauty of solitude and the art of living slowly. Set by the sea, it reflects on simplicity, self-reliance, and the gentle rhythms of life when we return to stillness.

    It’s a reminder that peace is often found in the small things — in the salt air, the light, the silence, and the act of simply being.

  • watch. water is life.

    A powerful and necessary film. Water is Life follows Aboriginal communities standing strong to protect their land and water from the impacts of fracking. It’s a story of deep connection to Country, and of people honouring their responsibility to care for it.

    This documentary reminds me that water is not just a resource — it’s spirit, it’s life, it’s story. The courage of these communities is a testament to what it means to live in balance with the earth, to defend what is sacred, and to speak for the land and waters that cannot speak for themselves.

    It’s both a protest and a prayer. a reminder that protecting Country is protecting life itself.

  • watch. another country.

    watch. another country.

    A film that moved me deeply. Another Country is told through the voice and spirit of David Gulpilil. sharing the story of what happens when one way of life is interrupted by another. When an old culture, rich and grounded in land, is overlaid by a new one that does not listen.

    It’s a powerful reflection on change, loss, and resilience. on what is forgotten when we fail to understand.

    This film is a reminder of what it means to belong to place. Of how culture is not something to be imposed, but something to be honoured.

  • watch. in my blood it runs.

    A remarkable story told through the eyes of ten-year-old Dujuan — a child-healer, a keeper of knowledge, and a quiet witness to the world around him.

    This film moves with honesty and courage, revealing the wisdom children carry, and the history and complexities that shape their lives. It’s a reminder of the resilience, knowledge, and heart that live within Indigenous communities, and of the deep connections that endure across generations.

  • watch. charlies country.

    A tender and powerful portrait of an Aboriginal elder determined to live in the old ways. Charlie’s Country follows his quiet resistance. his longing to return to Country, to live with dignity and freedom, guided by tradition and memory.

    It’s a story of strength, sorrow, and deep love for culture. a reminder of what is lost when connection to land is interrupted, and what endures in the human spirit despite it all.

  • how many planets do we need if everyone lived like you?

    A quiet invitation to pause and reflect. if everyone lived the way we do, how many planets would we need?

    This simple question reminds me how deeply our everyday choices ripple through the world. A reminder to live with care, to tread softly, and to honour the balance that sustains all life.

acknowledgement of country — australia was, and will always be, aboriginal land.

i celebrate the lands and sea country on which i live and that give us life. into which the songlines, stories, poetry, songs, ancestors and dreamings of first nations people are woven. i pay respects to all first nations people, past, present, and emerging for their generosity and custodianship of country, and i recognise their connection to country. sovereignty was never ceded.
