Beautiful and disturbing. Dujuan is clearly mature beyond his years, knows who he is (I am aboriginal) and manages to be a complete failure in a school that teaches The Dreamtime without understanding and history from the colonialists point of view.
Dujuan is hungry to learn which proves the school system and his consistent E grades aren't working for him.
However, within his culture he is, at 10, already a healer (an ability gifted from his gpa.) And the old people teach him his history which he quietly absorbs with understanding. Later he says he must learn and use white people's tool to get the land back. Perhaps an average 10 year old might parrot an adult saying this but he speaks with the conviction of true understanding.
The film made me cry. Who gives anyone the right to seize someone's children? I don't understand.
At the end, as the credits roll and Dujuan sings his song documenting who he is I see a wise man of the future.
Blessings Dujuan!
