About the Show
In The Whisper, a tip-off sparks a journey of Indigenous family survival, made by horse and cart under the cover of dark. Set against the racialized backdrop of 1940s Australia, a Ngarrindjeri family must make the impossible choice to leave home and country forever.
Directed by Maryanne Sam (Coconut Woman, Yirramboi Festival), The Whisper tells a story of courage and bravery. It reimagines the journey of one Aboriginal family striving to stay together at all costs, in the context of the painful 20th century colonial policies of separation, child removal, and racial segregation.
