Mabo

Violent electrical storms across Australia mystically connect hundreds of Indigenous youths who set off on a graffiti awareness campaign. This appears to be in reaction to hastily rescinded Indigenous land rights by Australia’s federal government. Using chalk, they write one word in beautiful copperplate … Mabo. Their marks are washed away by the next rainfall, but are quickly replaced. James, one of the youths is arrested by over-zealous police but he is soon released when it is found that he had not broken the law. Defiantly, James returns the next day and leaves his message directly in front of the police station.
