Brewarrina fish traps
From further south on our journey we’d heard about the remarkable fishery structures on the Barwon River at Brewarrina. From Bourke we took an easterly detour to our original route north just to find our more about them. In this video Bradley Hardy from the Brewarrina Aboriginal Cultural Museum explains the use and significance of the fish traps to the Aboriginal tribes of this area.
Baiames Ngunnhu - the story of Brewarrina Fish Traps
Originally produced in 2005, this video was made to commemorate the National Heritage Listing (NHL) of the Brewarrina Fish Traps (Baiames Ngunnhu) in Brewarrina, NSW. It was the second Indigenous site added to the list. The story is told by Aunty June Barker: a significant local elder.
Funding was through the Gifts to the Nation program
Many thanks to the community of Brewarrina who helped make this wonderful story possible.

Emu Runner - Trailer - SFF 19
The 66th Sydney Film Festival – 5-16 June 2019
In an outback NSW town a young Indigenous girl forms a very special bond with a wild emu, in a unique Australian story of love and loss.
Director Imogen Thomas’s debut was made over 15 years, in close collaboration with the Indigenous community of Brewarrina in western NSW.
Newcomer Rhae-Kye Waites shines as Gem, a nine-year-old girl who deals with the grief of her mother’s death by secretly befriending a wild emu. However, her need to source tasty snacks for her new friend, and her absence from school, attract the attention of family and authorities. Gem’s loving father (played by Wayne Blair, The Sapphires) is at a loss to know how to handle his wayward daughter.
A lyrical and poetic film grounded in social realism and emphasising the importance of Country, community and storytelling, Emu Runner is recommended for ages 8 and up.
