Lalai Dreamtime explores the passing on of traditional wisdom, as an old man takes his son to a sacred place to explain about their ancestors, the "Wandjinas," and outline their mythical foundations. It also shows the traditional life of the Worora tribe.

Filmmaker Michael Edols encouraged Sam Woolagoodjah and his family to return (after thirty years' absence) to their Worora tribal lands and to re-enact for the camera some of their sacred dreaming stories and traditional ways.
