'MEDIA trailblazer, leader and a man of culture – few Central Australians deserve a film tribute more than Francis Jupurrurla Kelly.

Josef Jakamarra Egger’s documentary about the filmmaker and former Central Land Council chair does more than celebrate Jupurrurla’s achievements, it fills a gap in our understanding of the history of remote Aboriginal media.

Jupurrurla – Man of Media

follows Mr Kelly’s life from his early bush childhood to his contribution to the success of Warlpiri Anmatyere Pintubi Media, better known as PAW Media.'

'Is it getting too hot for our mob?

'JUST as experts predicted Australia’s catastrophic bush fires of this summer decades ago, they also agree that poor communities around the world will be the most vulnerable in a hotter, drier and more unpredictable climate.

'Aboriginal people in remote communities will be among the hardest hit.

'In Central Australia, climate records continue to be broken. In January 2019, meteorologists declared the driest summer ever in Alice Springs and Tennant Creek, while 2018 was the hottest on record in Central Australia, with 55 days above 40 degrees.'
