The program begins with refreshments in the foyer of Bowral's own cinema gem, the Empire Theatre.

The Festival aims to showcase the talent of emerging Aboriginal filmmakers and to foster an understanding of the Aboriginal viewpoint - and towards this end, all film content is by Aboriginal filmmakers and actors.
The feature film Whale Riders is winner of 8 international awards and is a Julian Lennon production. It follows the powerful journey of an Aboriginal tribe reconnecting with their spiritual world.
