Almost single-handedly Eddie Koiki Mabo overturned a 200 year legal fiction: that Australia was uninhabited prior to European settlement. In doing so he won for Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders the right to claim for themselves all remaining crown land in Australia, providing they could prove an unbroken chain of traditional ownership. This book contains the complete shooting script of this remarkable documentary, plus the post-production script: an exact record, cut by cut of the finished film.
