In the 1800s, Adnyamathanha children of the Flinders Ranges in South Australia were inspired, schooled and entertained by their interactions with country.
In this clip from the short animated film, three adventurous kids have set out for a day of exploration near their camp, playing traditional games and spooking one another with tales of the ancient Yamuti.
Later, they find unusual tracks that set their hearts racing, and make a discovery that changes their lives forever.
