Scene clip | Jacinta traces history

Check out this scene from Yorta Yorta/Gunaikurnai playwright Andrea James's new play.

Jacinta (Chenoa Deemal) is diving into the so-called kidnapping of a white woman on Gunaikurnai country for her thesis, but things aren't adding up. Determined to reach the truth, she uses written and oral history to map out the myth from the confines of a motel room.
