Why

Nagana Yarrbayn: The Water Protectors. A short documentary by Wangan and Jagalingou Cultural Custodians.

This Naarm screening is proudly co-hosted with 350.org Australia. Tickets available from Humanitix.

Nagana Yarrbayn: The Water Protectors follows Senior Cultural Custodian Adrian Burragubba from the sacred Doongmabulla Springs to the courtroom, the community, and the national stage—documenting the Wangan and Jagalingou (W&J) fight to protect their ancestral waters from destruction by Adani's Carmichael mine.

Produced by Kim Paul Nguyen (Frontiers Media) in collaboration with W&J Nagana Yarrbayn Cultural Custodians, the film captures both the beauty of these ancient springs and the determination of the custodians to fulfil their sacred obligation under First Law to protect them.

Adrian Burragubba will speak following the screening about what's at stake—for Country, for cultural rights, and for all of us.
Protect sacred water. Protect human rights. Protect Country.

We don't want cost to be a barrier for anyone to see the film, so email us for a free ticket: [email protected].

All proceeds will be used for the legal fighting fund to protect Doongmabulla Springs.
