Star Stories of the Dreaming

О фильме

Star Stories of The Dreaming showcases the oldest knowledge on the planet. Increasingly Aboriginal people in Australia are being recognised as the first astronomers and we are transported into this ethereal world. In Star Stories of The Dreaming Ghillar Michael Anderson shares publicly for the first time teachings passed to him as the knowledge holder for his People, the Euahlayi. His Stories are told in the ancient songline tradition - Stories of Creation; how the platypus was born; the relationships of the Yhi, the sun, and Bahloo, the moon; Clouds of Magellan, Bullima and the Milky Way. When ancient knowledge held by the oldest culture on earth meets modern astrophysics a new concept is born - cultural astronomy. In the meeting of minds between Prof Ray Norris, Australia's leading astrophysicist responsible for EMU (Evolutionary Mapping of the Universe) and Ghillar, extraordinary parallels emerge in the two cultures.
