Audrey Napanangka is the story of a modern blended family – First Nations woman Audrey and her Sicilian partner Santo – negotiating across cultures as they try to keep their family together. 

Audrey was born at a time when the world was changing for people in the Central Australian Desert. Settler colonialism began permeating the desert and forced changes and the fusion of two worlds shifted Audrey’s life forever.

Audrey embeds her cultural knowledge, language and Law in the lives of those she cares for, while ensuring they have the education for the complex world of today. The intimate footage of this steadfast couple – filmed over 10 years in Mparntwe (Alice Springs) and Audrey’s Warlpiri homelands – provides unique insights into a family in Australia today.
