You And Me: Our Place
Every morning Uncle Tobias goes fishing. Sometimes he is joined by two little boys. Together they spend the day moving from one place to another – from the beach, to the bridge and the mangroves on the outskirts of the city – and back to the edge of the city. Along the way they meet other friends of Uncle Tobias – Auntie Ruby and Old Isaac – and listen to stories about Uncle Tobias' ancestors and other times. The setting of this story is Darwin, but it could be any regional coastal town in the north of Australia, where Indigenous and homeless people live on the margins of society. You and Me: Our place is about difference – old and new cultures that exist side by side – but more importantly it is about sameness. About people enjoying ordinary things and accepting each other -and especially about children who move freely between cultures.
