Politically censored by the Federal government for several years after its production, the film explores the importance of Country to Aboriginal people and investigates the well-publicised Aboriginal struggle to stop mining at Noonkanbah Station, an Aboriginal owned cattle station in the Kimberley, during the late 1970s. On Sacred Ground captures a particular moment in time for the Kimberley, however, echoes contemporary political negotiations. 

On Sacred Ground is also screening at AGWA from 9 February – 20 May 2019, as part of the Desert River Sea: Portraits of the Kimberley exhibition.
