keeping country live

In Emmiyengal, "karrabing" refers to the point at which the tide has reach it lowest point and is set to return to shore.

The Karrabing Indigenous Corporation seeks to integrate their parents and grandparents ways of life into their contemporary struggles to educate their children, create economically sustainable cultural and environmental ways of life, and support their ancestral present.

The Karrabing Film Collective makes films that analyse and represent their contemporary lives. But they also believe that in making their films they are keeping the country alive by acting on their country—not merely making a film representing their lives in the country, but paying attention to their country as they make a film in and about it.
