summary:
- The Yuendumu Mining Company is about the smallest company
reaping a mineral harvest in Australia's current mining boom.
Located about 200 miles north-west of Alice Springs in Central
Australia, the company's plant and equipment consist of little
more than a truck, a tractor, a small ore-crushing plant and a
few wheelbarrows. But the 16 shareholders in the Copper mining
venture, all of them aboriginals, are more than content with the
progress of their company since it was first formed five years
ago. (taken from script)

[Director], photographer, Roger Sandall; editor, producer, Kim
McKenzie. Commentator: Nicolas Peterson.
- NLA summary: Originally
shot in 1967, the footage in this film is re-examined ten years
later by anthropologist Nicholas Peterson. He and filmmaker
Roger Sandall had been working with Warlpiri (Walbiri) men in
the desert away from the government settlement of Yuendumu in
Central Australia. On their return to the settlement they
observed the fire ceremony underway. One of the most spectacular
ceremonies of Central Australia, it employs fire to inflict real
and symbolic punishment on those responsible for a social
transgression. In the course of the ceremony, one of the two
main groupings (moieties) within Warlpiri society has the
opportunity to exact from the other an acknowledgement of
wrong-doing by some of its members. In his commentary Peterson
explains this social division and the role the the ceremony
plays in restoring order to the community. [NLA FLM <A12066656 H4062]
