The Message: the Story from the Shore

The Museum commissioned award-winning filmmaker Alison Page and director Nik Lachajczak to create a film in collaboration with Indigenous communities along Australia’s east coast. The Message: the Story from the Shore features descendants of those whose ancestors witnessed Cook’s passage, powerfully reimagining the message of the ship’s arrival being passed up the coast line.
