It is the distant past, tribal times. Dayindi (played by Jamie Gulpilil, son of the great David Gulpilil) covets one of the wives of his older brother. To teach him the proper way, he is told a story from the mythical past, a story of wrong love, kidnapping, sorcery, bungling mayhem and revenge gone wrong.
In English storytelling (by David Gulpilil) and subtitled Ganalbingu language, this is a film unlike any you have ever seen.
“The first feature in an Australian Aboriginal language feels authentic to the core as it tells a cautionary tale set 1,000 years ago.”
Richard Kuipers, Variety read the article
“An enchanting fable rich in authenticity and shot through with unexpected humor.”
Megan Lehmann, Hollywood Reporter read the article
Ten Canoes is a tale of love, lust, survival and life. The director has enthralled us with suspense and adventure using oral history, an art form that is as long as time. Ten Canoes is beyond brilliance and is a must see film!
