Cunnamulla

In the small town of Cunnamulla, 800 kilometers west of Brisbane, a intricate web of connections unfolds between Aboriginal and white Australians as the scorching Christmas season approaches.

In the remote Australian town of Cunnamulla, where the railway line ends, a scorching Christmas is just around the corner. But beneath the surface of the annual lizard race, tensions simmer between the Aboriginal and white communities, who coexist but remain separate. As creativity and individuality clash with indifference and conformity, the stage is set for a dramatic exploration of cultural identity and social change.
