Big love, tough love, fishing and forgiveness…
Bre & Back is a 30-minute documentary that gives a personal insight into the lives of four inspiring Aboriginal women from Brewarrina in northern NSW. It goes to the heart of one of the most significant relationships we have during our lifetime - that with our mother. Grace and Jenny Shillingsworth, Noeleen and Lily Shearer invite us into the rhythm of their everyday, sharing memories of home, tales of fishing and thoughtful insights with a good measure of wit and wisdom.
