[gentle instrumental music playing]

4
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,240
[man] It's not a cool thing.

5
00:00:23,240 --> 00:00:24,960
It's not a fashionable thing.

6
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:33,240
You ask me about what I would say
to people if they've never been to gaol…

7
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,360
what it would be like,
and I've had a think about it.

8
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,200
Just laying there in my cell.

9
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,720
You're restricted in your movements.
You're restricted in what you say.

10
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,280
You're restricted in everything.

11
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,520
So, it's a lot more than just not
being able to go to the shop.

12
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,320
It's something you have
to really adjust your life

13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,400
and learn to be told what
to do and when to do it.

14
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:56,200
You've got to be answerable
to a really dogmatic system.

15
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,240
And it's just in the- will be,
strategically designed

16
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,920
to supress what you have
as an individual person.

17
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,640
And you've got to learn to be able to…

18
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,440
to cop, cop a lot of shit.

19
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,360

[Uncle Jack Charles voice over]
Art remains as one of the most purest

22
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:36,000
and accessible ways of our
people to connect with culture.

23
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:50,160
Those inside have not let the
prison walls stole their creativity.

24
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,040
[gentle music continues]

25
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:10,160
The incarceration rate of our
people is a national crisis.

26
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:16,320
Currently, Indigenous Australians make up
less than three percent of the population,

27
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,440
but 27 percent of the
adult prison population.

28
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:26,840
Our youth make up 55 percent
of young people in custody.

29
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:31,840
And after 40 years of advocacy
from the Victorian community,

30
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,880
prisoners can now sell
their art through The Torch.

31
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,400
The money provides them
with a chance on the outside.

32
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:46,600
But to what extent can our
people truly find their culture

33
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,960
whilst behind bars?

34
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,320

[Uncle Jack] Paul McCann has
come to speak with Indigenous artists

38
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,400
about the upcoming Confined exhibition.

39
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,160
[Paul] Hello! It’s very dark in here.

40
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,880
[Christopher] Did you get onto Munnings?
Did ya see Munnings?

41
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,160
Your Munnings?

42
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,720
Yeah. Here. Phil Munnings.

43
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,520
Oh yeah, Phil. Sorry, yeah.

44
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:35,960
Ooh!

45
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,880
-You say it. You say it.
-I'll see him today.

46
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:59,720
[Uncle Jack] Christopher Austin is a
Gunditjmara Keerraaywoorrong man.

47
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:06,120
He has spent 37 years within
the youth and adult prison system.

48
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,400
His offending behaviour
began with minor offences,

49
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,280
and eventually escalated
to armed robberies.

50
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,320
It's in January,

51
00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:22,240
at St. Kilda Town Hall,
and it’s Indigenous art,

52
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,600
created by Indigenous
prisoners and ex-prisoners.

53
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:31,200
It shows people out there that
we’re not all just…

54
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,160
drug addicts, alcoholics and crooks
and bad people, you know.

55
00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:39,200
We have got something
good in us, you know.

56
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,320
It gives you another direction to go down.

57
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,000
You don’t have to choose
one way, you know?

58
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,280
Most people go straight back to crime,

59
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,400
go straight back to what they
were doing when they come here.

60
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,240
You know,
this does give you a new direction.

61
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,160
[indistinct background chatter]

62
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:12,040
[Christopher] There’s no exact
plan at the start. It just…

63
00:05:12,280 --> 00:05:14,280
as I'm painting, it just keeps coming.

64
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,920
It’s like I've got
the two different frogs.

65
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,200
One’s just like painted normal,
one’s got Koori designs in it,

66
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,160
just like my Mum and Dad.

67
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,560
Two different cultures.

68
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:29,280
And yeah, it’s using the bright colours.
I like the colours.

69
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,080
[clap sticks]

70
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,520
[Paul]
So I want to set two different prices.

71
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,040
I have to rub all this shit out.
This crappy bit.

72
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,600
Yeah, um, just erase that out.

73
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,880
[Paul] So, um, for this one…

74
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,440
is there a specific price that
you had in mind for that?

75
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,360
[Andrew] I don't know how
to work the prices out on them.

76
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:36,680
[Paul] Give me one second.

77
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:38,400
How’s it going, Troy?

78
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,480
-How’re you goin, bruh?
-Hey. Paul McCann.

79
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:41,720
Good to meet you.

80
00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:47,040
Yeah, I've heard a lot about you in you
know, getting into the art or whatever.

81
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,120
-Yeah.
-So come out,

82
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,280
come down and suss what you're up to and
what you want to put in for Confined eh?

83
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,400
-Yeah, cool
-Yeah, you got something on the go?

84
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,360
-Yeah.
-Let’s find a table,

85
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,800
bit of a spot, have a look.

86
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,720
[Uncle Jack]
Troy Brabham is a Wemba Wemba man.

87
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:07,800
Troy states he has spent nine years
within the prison system.

88
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:14,960
His offending behaviour is centered around
violence, drug and alcohol addiction.

89
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:23,360
My connections, um, is my birthright
through my father and my mother.

90
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:30,600
She um, I have Aboriginality
stemming from both sides of my family.

91
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,440
But my connection to it
is I've lived it all my life.

92
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,840
That’s… I know my Aboriginal side more
than I know my white side of the family.

93
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:45,600
I was trained at the ABC,
Crows Nest, 2003,

94
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,200
and I worked for most of the channels in
Australia as a freelance photographer.

95
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:55,560
and I've worked for Reuters in Germany,
the BBC in London, Canwest in Canada.

96
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,080
And now I'm here. [laughs]

97
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,840
The point is, even the
best of us can muck up…

98
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,720
and come to grief,
and end up in an institution like this,

99
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,880
where identity and hope and…

100
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,880
freedom to express your individualism
is very much important.

101
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:23,280
Keep your sanity as well
as to keep your belief…

102
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,880
that you're gonna get out,
and you're gonna get back in society and

103
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:35,760
reinforcing the facts that we can do well,
with a kinship.

104
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,760
-What’s the story behind it?
-[Troy] Oh, that’s the Murray River.

105
00:08:40,919 --> 00:08:43,360
-Murray, okay.
-Snake Island, just off Swan Hill.

106
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:44,440
Okay, yep.

107
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,600
Yeah, growing up we used to swim
out there as kids and shit and…

108
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:49,600
[Paul] Plenty of snakes, is there?

109
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,280
[Troy] Yeah. But that’s the
Murray River there. That’s the banks.

110
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,280
-This is the bush…
-[Paul] Yeah.

111
00:08:55,560 --> 00:08:57,560
…outside in the sandhills and that.

112
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:58,720
With your art practice,

113
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,840
if there’s something you want
to continue on the outside,

114
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,920
we do have a post-release program
where we can send you art supplies,

115
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,560
no matter where you are,
within the state of Victoria,

116
00:09:07,680 --> 00:09:11,480
and just see how you're traveling.
You know that way in creating more art,

117
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:12,880
you know, and staying out of trouble.

118
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,560
-We’d love to see you at the exhibition.
-Yeah, well I'll be at the exhibition

119
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:17,000
because I'm out in 29 days.

120
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:18,320
Oh, okay. Awesome.

121
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,280
[Paul] Where’s everyone else?

122
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,800
Oh, hello. This is my cousin.

123
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,720
-Where’s your painting?
-Yeah, I didn’t know. I'll go grab em all.

124
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,200
I've got two in the office there
and I've kept the rest here.

125
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:48,360
Okay.

126
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,000
[gentle music playing]

127
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:05,560
The increasing incarceration rate
of First Nations People

128
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:08,120
is economically unsustainable.

129
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,400
The average cost to lock
someone up for a year in Australia

130
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,720
is 110,000 dollars.

131
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,680
Fifty eight percent
of Indigenous Australians

132
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,200
return to jail within one year.

133
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,200
[critters chirp]

134
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,120
[wind howls]

135
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,880
[Uncle Jack] Robby Wirramanda
has returned to Wergaia country

136
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,440
in North-Western Victoria.

137
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,600
He has served a four-year prison
sentence for drug trafficking.

138
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:05,680
He was raised amongst
poverty and domestic violence.

139
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:13,200
He began committing crime at the age
of seven and using drugs by the age of 12,

140
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,720
although he is now sober.

141
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,120
[gentle music playing]

142
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:51,200
[Uncle Jack] Robby’s grandmother passed
on her knowledge of art and culture to him

143
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,240
when he was a child.

144
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:59,520
During his prison sentence,
he reconnected with his passion for art.

145
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,680
He is currently on parole.

146
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:07,880
[Robby] All good.

147
00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:14,000
[man] This way a bit. That’s right.

148
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:43,240
We’re gonna do our first-
first photo shoot, out at Lake Tyrell.

149
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:48,280
And then we’re going to take
some in some sandhills as well.

150
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,240
But the first one is the most important.

151
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,800
We’re going to focus
on is Lake Tyrell itself.

152
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,080
In the last probably eight to ten months,

153
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,800
this is all we’ve been doing is just…

154
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,120
working up to get this
piece done on the lake.

155
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:12,080
On my grandmother’s country.
Wegaia people.

156
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:17,520
And that’s the power
of this piece, because,

157
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:23,240
Lake Tyrell was somewhere where
our people used to go to collect energy.

158
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:32,640
[Robby] Hop in fellas.

159
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,640
[Troy] You step back and look at it.

160
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,320
That’s what I'm going through
with my incarceration, too,

161
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,080
stepping back and looking at myself.

162
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:02,680
And seeing what I see with
clearer perspective and clearer eyes.

163
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:07,760
It’s an emulation that I find with this.

164
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:20,480
And everything that’s rough in life,
is rough like this,

165
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,360
but I'll be refining it
and making it better.

166
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,680
I was physically violent.

167
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:27,680
[clears throat]

168
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,600
I was untrustworthy as a friend,

169
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,760
because mixed with my
alcohol addiction at the time,

170
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:39,000
when I was younger, I was very off-tap.

171
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:45,080
I used to be quite physically violent
and I learnt to box at a young age,

172
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,040
so I carried that through
for my state of reasoning

173
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,640
which was quite unfair
and quite abusive to any sort of,

174
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,920
and I was destructive to any sort of…

175
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,720
friendship or parallel of friendship
that I might run with people,

176
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,360
or even loved ones and that, you know.

177
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:07,840
I look back on that as wasted time,

178
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:12,200
and wasted energy and me being
in that much fear of self-loathing.

179
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,240
That was a conduit for it.

180
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:18,440
[Alex] Was your photography--

181
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:23,440
-Oh, yeah.
-Yeah.

182
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:27,880
-[Alex] That's all.
-Yeah.

183
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,600
-We’ll pick it up later.
-Yeah, cool.

184
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,520
-I'll be back.
-[Alex] You gotta get to the court.

185
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,720
-Gotta go and get this sorted.
-[Alex] Yeah, good luck man.

186
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:34,960
Cheers.

187
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,200
I'm gonna be heard today.
Find out if I've got extra time or not.

188
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:44,520
[indistinct chatter]

189
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,600
[gentle music playing]

190
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,120
[Christopher]
Probably been in jail about 30 years.

191
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,920
-[Alex] How old are you?
-[Christopher] Fifty four.

192
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,400
Started when I was 11.

193
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,240
[Uncle Jack]
After being raised on a mission,

194
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:13,000
Christopher contracted the white man’s
disease known as tuberculosis,

195
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,160
and was moved to the city for treatment.

196
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,240
He was first incarcerated
at the age of 12.

197
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,120
[Christopher]
Back then, I'd say for Koori kids,

198
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:30,160
if you went to court once or twice,
that was determined they put you in there.

199
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,520
Made you a ward of the state
for being uncontrollable.

200
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:40,360
Pretty scary at first,
and yeah, pretty daunting.

201
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,720
It’s like taken away from
everything you know, cos…

202
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,760
I think back then, too, there’d only
be a couple of Koori kids there,

203
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:54,280
so you're getting taken right away
from your culture, your people.

204
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,960
Never grew up with white
people before, you know.

205
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,640
Next minute you've gotta
live with everyone's white.

206
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,960
There was, like probably
in the unit that I went to,

207
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:04,880
there wasn't another black kid there.

208
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:09,200
So it was like pretty bad.
It was pretty scary.

209
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:15,920
[Uncle Jack] From here, Christopher’s
37-year cycle of incarceration began.

210
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,920
From the age of 12 to 46,

211
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,720
the longest Christopher spent
in society was nine months.

212
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:32,800
He states that he was first exposed
to drugs inside prison at the age of 17.

213
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:38,200
To this day,
he is still struggling with addiction.

214
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,280
[Alex] When you think about
your first few days outside of here…

215
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:44,160
-[Christopher] When I get out?
-[Alex] Yeah.

216
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,000
I'll be with a four-year-old
that just won’t leave me alone,

217
00:17:48,120 --> 00:17:50,000
so I'll be pretty happy.

218
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,800
It’ll be alright. That’s part of it, too.

219
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,600
My Missus and that, nuh, saying,
‘I've gotta paint.’

220
00:17:58,120 --> 00:18:02,200
I've always had lectures
on it about painting outside.

221
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,680
Only coming to jail and paint.
‘You don’t paint outside.’

222
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,360
My Mum used to tell me that all the time.

223
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:16,360
Yeah, not coming back to jail.
I know I'm not coming back to jail.

224
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,600
[Didgeridoo playing]

225
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,560
That’s all they are,
just made out of paddle pop sticks.

226
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,280
Got nothing to work with,
to still capture his culture.

227
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,520
Bang, straight out of icy-pole sticks.

228
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:01,040
So you know what I mean.

229
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:10,960
I don't know.

230
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,280
[gentle music playing]

231
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:21,400
[sighs] Once you take-
get put on this roundabout…

232
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,360
it is a very hard thing to get off it,
you know?

233
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,880
You can keep coming back.
You go out with your mates on the weekend,

234
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,880
you have a little snort
or a little bit of a pill, you know,

235
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,160
just to have that little party.

236
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,640
You know how when they go out
and like the party drug, you know.

237
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,880
And that makes you feel good and all that.
And you do that a few times.

238
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,000
And then you get there one time
and you're having a bad trot.

239
00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:48,040
You're going through like a week,
two weeks, or month of feeling down

240
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:49,880
or feeling pretty shit and all that.

241
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,960
'Hang on a second,
I know what can make me feel good.’

242
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,640
And start taking that drug again.

243
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,480
And then you'll take
it the next day again,

244
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,360
because you know that
it made you feel better,

245
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,600
and then they’re back
onto that roundabout,

246
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,720
which is a cycle that is very hard
to get off, for a lot of people.

247
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:09,720
Same goes with coming in,
committing a crime and coming to jail.

248
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,160
It’s very addictive, you know.

249
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:17,280
It’s very easy for people to come
here and live here, than it is outside.

250
00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:23,320
And to go back out there, it’s yeah,
you don’t want to start on it.

251
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,480
[Uncle Jack] Robby is a traditional
owner of the Wergaia land.

252
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,800
That’s history that spans
well over 80,000 years.

253
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:48,040
The sculptures represent Robby’s
reconnection with his family,

254
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,000
and above all, his spirituality.

255
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,160
[gentle music playing]

256
00:22:18,360 --> 00:22:24,000
Straight out and you sit it
down beside the tent there.

257
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,080
[gentle music continues]

258
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,640
[man] That’s a good one.

259
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,880
[gentle music continues]

260
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:36,840
[man] We’re almost there.

261
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,560
[gentle music continues]

262
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:29,480
Very good.

263
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,200
As long as it captures the imagination.

264
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:01,840
Come on, boys.

265
00:25:02,120 --> 00:25:05,120
[gentle music continues]

266
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,560
[indistinct chatter over car radio]

267
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:42,120
[Uncle Jack] Kent has come to collect the
final artwork for the Confined exhibition.

268
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,320
[indistinct conversation]

269
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,480
[indistinct conversation continues]

270
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:57,840
[Uncle Jack] Kent has discovered that his
cousin, an artist in The Torch program,

271
00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,880
has died in prison.

272
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,160
[indistinct background chatter]

273
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,000
-Good. I'll be back in a minute.
-Okay.

274
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:19,960
-How are ya, fella?
-How are ya?

275
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:21,360
-Good to see you too.
-Been a while, eh?

276
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,600
Been a long time.
Got something paintings for ya.

277
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,320
I've heard you've
been painting up a storm.

278
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,440
[indistinct background chatter]

279
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,080
[Paul] That a big one, eh?

280
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,840
[Joseph] Like fingerprints.
None of them are the same.

281
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,200
I done that in one day.

282
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,960
[Paul] Yeah?
And what’s the story there for that one?

283
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:51,000
That’s like, uh,
water going down the drain.

284
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:52,880
-Yep.
-Yeah.

285
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,560
Washing the blood off your hands.

286
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,400
-Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
-So you can move on with your life.

287
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,120
Bit of a cleansing, yep.
What about this one?

288
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:02,760
-That's like…
-This one looks really interesting.

289
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,920
-That’s the first…
-It’s very retro.

290
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:10,400
First… Like you know,
when blokes wear pink shirts?

291
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,160
-Yeah.
-Yeah, first um,

292
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:16,800
I've worn one pink shirt in my life,
and I done one pink painting.

293
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,960
-[Paul laughs]
-And…

294
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,960
And not…
not too good with the pink, but yeah.

295
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:24,200
I had to do it.

296
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,000
I'm gonna probably send
that one to my daughters,

297
00:27:27,120 --> 00:27:30,680
and yeah,
and they make of it what they want.

298
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,040
[Paul] Exactly, yeah.

299
00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:35,440
As long as they can touch it and
know that Dad done it for 'em and…

300
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,440
[Paul] That’s special.
Yeah, exactly. Good one.

301
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,200
-[Paul] That's amazing
-It's time…

302
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,680
-time versus patience.
-That's it, yep.

303
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,760
-Half the time you haven’t got the time.
-And head space as well.

304
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,600
Half the time you
haven’t got the patience.

305
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:47,560
Yeah.

306
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,120
-Well we’ll do some paperwork then.
-Yep.

307
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,040
And I'll get these two off and…

308
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,200
my boss’ll pick which one,
you know, will probably go in.

309
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:57,720
Yeah, definitely.

310
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,920
I don’t do em.
They’re already done in my head,

311
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:05,640
and it mixes with emotions
in my heart that I feel at the time,

312
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,040
and my hands just take over.

313
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,200
And then I blink, and they’re done.

314
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:12,680
It's…

315
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:18,720
And it helps me relieve myself and
my brain from being not just in here,

316
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,040
but to help me express
myself in other ways than…

317
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,240
other ways than talking
and or violence, yeah.

318
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,080
It really, really helps me
get along with everybody.

319
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:33,960
[Paul] Right.
We’ll do some paperwork, then.

320
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:35,360
Alright then.

321
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,000
I feel really great.

322
00:28:37,120 --> 00:28:42,600
I feel blessed to do it
and have the opportunity to…

323
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,240
compare notes with all the other guys,

324
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:55,080
and it’s basically as an
individual doing a group activity.

325
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,040
It’s like being in a team.

326
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:05,760
It’s like, oh,
playing football again, yeah.

327
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,080
It’s… it’s really good.

328
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:15,080
Yeah, and um… like… you know,

329
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:20,080
you don’t get the opportunity
every day to do something as a team.

330
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:28,080
So that’s why I just… I feel that this
is really, really, really, really good

331
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:29,840
for personal growth,

332
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:36,120
and growth as,
you know, as a group, yeah.

333
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,480
[Joseph] The name,
the original name it gave me…

334
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,320
-[Paul] Yeah, what was it?
-[Joseph] …was…

335
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,800
-…grey. Grey Area. In life.
-[Paul] Oh yeah, I prefer that.

336
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,960
When we’re caught, when we’re
caught in between black and white,

337
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,040
we’re in the grey area of life.

338
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,120
[Paul] And that’s got a grey area.
That’s much better.

339
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,440
That’s what it told me.

340
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,280
That’s much better.
And we got Fingerprints over here.

341
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:08,480
Yeah.

342
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,840
Here’s the book we made on Wemba Wemba.

343
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:25,480
-Oh, yeah.
-The history.

344
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,400
Got some creation stories here,
a bit of lingo if you want to…

345
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,600
-Yeah, yeah.
-…make that story in your own language.

346
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:32,400
Um.

347
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,120
Obviously, those are significant
places for your mob as well.

348
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,760
Yeah, my aunty is in that lake.
And my grandmother.

349
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,480
-Yeah, yeah. It’s beautiful up there, eh.
-Yeah.

350
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,000
[Kent] Yes, of course. That’s fantastic.

351
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:53,800
It’s got the Murray River.
It’s got the banks.

352
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,720
-Yeah, so you got your linework going on.
-Yeah.

353
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:57,200
-[Kent] Fantastic.
-Yeah.

354
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,200
-That’s really fantastic.
-I keep it simple.

355
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,440
-Yeah, great.
-Yeah.

356
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:06,080
Really good. Alright.
That’s coming with us.

357
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:07,080
-Yeah, no worries.
-[Kent laughs]

358
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,800
And it’ll look fantastic, once it’s put
together as one canvas and stretched.

359
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,720
-Yeah.
-In the gallery that’ll be absolute gold.

360
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,920
Well that’s my first
real attempt at it, so…

361
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:20,040
-Is it? Like…
-Yeah.

362
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,480
-It’s great to see works like this.
-Yeah.

363
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,800
It’s very… it’s very unique.
It’s very contemporary as well.

364
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,320
You're kind of looking at the landscape
and what’s always been there.

365
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:30,920
-Yeah.
-And the markings that you've made

366
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,080
-are contemporary.
-So yeah,

367
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,680
it’s important to have the meaning
behind it and what the story tells

368
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,600
itself as the picture
depicts my individuality.

369
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,360
-Yeah, yeah. No, great job mate.
-Yeah.

370
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,000
-Yeah cool, mate.
-[both laugh]

371
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,120
Right.

372
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,720
-[Kent] Right, I'll see you.
-Yeah.

373
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,000
[Troy] Yeah, I don't know.

374
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,200
My court case last week
didn’t go too well,

375
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,520
and I might be looking at more time.

376
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,320
I don't know yet.
I put in for another indicator.

377
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,600
Fingers crossed I might be able to
go home before Christmas, but…

378
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,800
if I can’t, I can’t.
It is what it is.

379
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:23,880
We weren’t built to drink.

380
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:28,480
We don’t process alcohol as
well as what Anglo Saxons do.

381
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,960
So we’re all more or less topping
up every time we drink,

382
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:33,280
and just through my own experiences,

383
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,160
I know that alcohol was one of
the biggest crutches for me.

384
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,200
That’s why I've been in and out of jail.

385
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:45,960
And social aspect,
of course we have that racism,

386
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,120
but I've got a little bit of
a different sort of twinge on it,

387
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:53,600
because I've had reverse racism as well,
from both sides of the fence.

388
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:59,560
And I struggled with my cultural identity
and who I was, because of that,

389
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,120
trying to be blacker than what I was…

390
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:07,480
and understanding that I had
both white in me and black.

391
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,600
So they’re the social divisions
I had to cross myself,

392
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:15,840
and to be accepted in
those sort of things that I do

393
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,120
that I shake my head to now,
as an older fella.

394
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:20,560
Oh, just trying to fit in.

395
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,000
Fighting. Drinking.

396
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,360
Some of the things that make me shudder.

397
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,640
[laughs] Some of the things I've done…

398
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,960
…just crazy, to be accepted…

399
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:38,200
to work out my fear
of self-loathing that I did have.

400
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:45,320
What I've come to know is what
my insecurities were growing up,

401
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,200
and what I've gone through and…

402
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,400
…domestic violence, the onset of that.

403
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:59,120
How my mentors, growing up as a kid.

404
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:05,200
It was socially acceptable in Australian
conditions as to how you drink and,

405
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,680
you might bash your wife
or whatever, you know.

406
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,560
Those were all things that
were hidden in the closet

407
00:34:10,679 --> 00:34:13,360
when I was growing up as a 70's kid.

408
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,159
And those mentors that we take on.

409
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,560
I always said,
‘I'll never end up like my old man.

410
00:34:21,679 --> 00:34:23,400
I'll never end up like me Dad’ you know.

411
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:29,520
Even my father, he worked his guts out
and you know, I tip my hat for that.

412
00:34:29,639 --> 00:34:33,280
But socially, he was… he was… numb.

413
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,679
He didn’t have mentors to roll off.

414
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,800
What we know as today
as acceptable behaviour,

415
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,760
I had no idea of, growing up.

416
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:47,120
And I ended up emulating my father in so
many ways that I don’t care to remember.

417
00:34:47,679 --> 00:34:48,760
Wish to forget.

418
00:34:56,639 --> 00:34:59,360
[indistinct background chatter]

419
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:01,440
Just gonna sign it.

420
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,520
-I finished the painting.
-[Alex] After how long?

421
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:08,200
Between five and six months.

422
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,640
[indistinct background chatter]

423
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:36,360
No, it’s good. I like it.
I like the yellow.

424
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,360
It’s me, you know. I made it.
That’s what I done, you know.

425
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,760
I suppose it’s unique for me.

426
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:42,760
Yeah, yeah.

427
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:49,960
When I am eventually freed,
I will continue to do my artwork,

428
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:54,160
it’s brought me culturally
closer to understanding myself

429
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,040
and my tribal grounds and…

430
00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:00,520
where I'm from and how they
depicted their artwork back in the day,

431
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:03,880
so, with my own individual twist.

432
00:36:06,720 --> 00:36:09,440
[indistinct background chatter]

433
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,080
Black makes me look slimmer.

434

[laughter]

435
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,040
Come help us cuz, hey?

436

[indistinct background chatter]

437
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,080
-[Jim] You right, mate?
-[man] You right?

438
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:10,240
[Jim] This way.

439
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,760
[indistinct chatter]

440
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,520
The diamond’s for Guna/Kurnai,
the land we’re on.

441
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,520
We all just add our own little bit,
like the black there,

442
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,800
for one of the brothers
from Alice Springs.

443
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:36,280
The red there, like my people
are Tassie, so we use red.

444
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,080
And all the other brothers
with the white and that.

445
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:42,040
We not doing the dances all different mobs
we’re doing the dance as one mob.

[laughter]

450
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,760
Ours is the creation dance, you know.

451
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:17,280
I was Bundjul the eagle, the creator,
and yeah, the boys just…

452
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:18,960
we just went through,
you know the animals.

453
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,880
The first one was the kangaroo,
then the emu,

454
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,240
and then we all done
Bundjul together, the eagle.

455
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,200
So yeah, that’s the creation dance.

456

457
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:35,360
[Christopher]
This year is bigger than last year

458
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:39,880
as in participation, and the people
wanting to get more involved in it,

459
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:44,120
being in Confined.
So even next year,

460
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,040
if some of these boys will be still here
and for the people that are coming,

461
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:49,960
it’ll be even bigger.

462
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:55,200
So I think Kent needs to hire some people.
I'm putting my hand up.

463
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,600
And my cousin Bungeye’s coming,
I hope. That’s him.

464
00:41:01,240 --> 00:41:04,600
See youse all there. More the merrier.

465
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,200
[gentle music playing]

466
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,760
Okay, here we are. [laughs]

467
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:42,080
[Christopher] To see all them people there
walking around, looking at people’s art.

468
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:46,160
And I like hearing the comments and
all that, and just seeing people.

469
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:51,200
It’ll be pretty cool. Be a tremendous
feeling, I think it’d give ya.

470
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,960
[Damien] I just want to see
me painting get out there.

471
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,120
For me, I put so much time into it.

472
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:02,040
I've had everyone say, ‘Yeah, it’s
a good painting, this and that’ but,

473
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,640
I want to see actual other
people outside of jail

474
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:08,840
know that it’s come from a prisoner and
sit there and still enjoy the painting.

475
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,240
[Joseph] That’s what
brought us together as a group,

476
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:16,160
and given us experiences that
no one can take away from us.

477
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,680
No matter how dark the times get,

478
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,880
no one can take away Confined 8,
art exhibitionists.

479
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,120
We’re all together as one brotherhood.

Never.

491
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,480
Five hundred bucks, mate. I'm rapt.

492
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,560
That’s like, I didn’t even get
a Christmas present this year.

493
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:37,640
Jackie said I'm too old. She said, ‘No,
you're too old. Present’s for the kids.'

494
00:44:38,240 --> 00:44:39,920
Thanks, mate.
This is my Christmas present.

[applause]

496
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,120
[gentle music playing]

497
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:05,280
[Troy] I got out December 20 and I've been
out for approximately four months now.

498
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:09,640
This is my court date that
was set before I was released.

499
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:14,040
Yeah, I've been keeping up the program.
I've been doing, ticking all the boxes.

500
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,960
Crossing the Ts, dotting the Is.
Staying out of trouble.

501
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:23,440
Doing all the right things that
both society and this court room

502
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,280
suggest we live by.

503
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:29,560
I want to try and get onto
as much art as I can because it’s…

504
00:45:29,720 --> 00:45:32,720
it’s lit a fire of inspiration under me,

505
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:38,680
so it’s maybe something that
I never knew was down there

506
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:40,680
that I've been able to connect with.

507
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:44,440
[Alex] And what are some of the possible
outcomes of today, do you think?

508
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:48,000
Um… obviously, incarceration.

509
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:53,960
Idealistically, I'd like to get an
extension of my corrections order,

510
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,560
um, because that’s going so well.

511
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,520
But fingers crossed, it all depends.

512
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,680
The matrix of the court system
on the day is on the day.

513
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,840
[Uncle Jack]
When entering back into society,

514
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,080
the struggle continues.

515
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,680
[man] Any spare change, please?

516
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,040
[Robby] Being a convicted drug dealer,

517
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,440
is that gonna stop me
from training a fighter,

518
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,320
and getting a job as a personal trainer?

519
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,680
It’s not just for me.
It’s for a lot of, you know,

520
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:32,520
brothers and sisters
getting out of prison.

521
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:37,840
Um, you can’t just keep being punished,
you know what I mean?

522
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:39,920
You go through, you do your time.

523
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,720
You can turn around, understand
yourself, assess your life and think,

524
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:45,480
‘Okay, now I've gotta move on.’

525
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:49,040
And you go to move on after healing
yourself, and you get stopped again.

526
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,680
Say, ‘Oh no, we can’t hire you,
because you're a criminal.'

527
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:53,920
‘Hang on, I went to prison for that.'

528
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:56,720
So let’s move on,

529
00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:03,240
otherwise they fully need to understand
the word and what recidivism means.

530
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,120
I'll give you a hug to start with.

531
00:47:11,720 --> 00:47:13,240
-How’s it going?
-Very good.

532
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,800
[Troy] Justice prevailed,
finally, for a black man.

533
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,480
I'm actually not even going
bother saying never say never,

534
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:46,200
because I refuse to actually ever be
on the wrong side of this setting again.

535
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:52,440
Because in order for me
to not be a hypocrite…

536
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:56,960
or not carry any conviction
in any of our interviews,

537
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,160
then I would end up back here.

538
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:05,040
But, I want to stay fat
to what I do and stay who I am,

539
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:10,280
and learn out of this something that
I can give as a gift to the universe,

540
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:13,360
the positive, that it’s given me.

541
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,680
[Uncle Jack]
A private art dealer in Melbourne

542
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:38,360
has commissioned an installation
of Robby’s sculptures.

543
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,400
[Robby] This is the type
of door that art opens.

544
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:43,960
You know, it can open for anyone.

545
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:49,600
It’s just a matter of pushing through and
really believing in what your product is.

546
00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,400
All wise men, or wise women…

547
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:56,880
would definitely create more
opportunities than they find.

548
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:05,880
Well for me, it’s just how glad I am
and how grateful I am to be able to be

549
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,640
with my family, you know. It helps
you sort of realise what you've got.

550
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:14,000
So they say you don’t know
what you've got till you lose it,

551
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:18,440
well, when you've lost it
and you get it back again,

552
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:23,800
you make sure you treat it right and make
sure everything works how it should

553
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,240
when you,
when you're back in that environment.

554
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,680
This is called the ‘Brighton blazer.’

555
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:29,840
Helps me blend in.

556
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:33,520
But I just, I have to pull these,
pull it down like that.

557
00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:38,560
I just walk around like that,
so no one can see the hands.

558
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,120
The Brighton blazer. Look at that.

559
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:46,240
Smartarse.

560
00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:09,120
[Uncle Jack] Troy has been using
hard drugs since his release from prison.

561
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,640
In particular methamphetamine.

562
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,680
[Troy] This here is my country,
where I was born.

563
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,360
And the gold is my aura,
the red is my blood.

564
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:27,480
Here is Djukuba from my language,
dreaming.

565
00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,040
And that’s the representation
of the other tribes,

566
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:36,160
and the circles being tribal,
radial boundaries.

567
00:50:36,240 --> 00:50:41,440
I was given the opportunity,
or actually now I look at it as a gift,

568
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,520
to meet a cousin of mine,
Robby Wirramanda.

569
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:46,840
How’re you doing, bruz?

570
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:52,280
But I spoke to him for the first time,
and we not only touched base,

571
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:56,560
we were able to ascertain that
we are very close blood related.

572
00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,320
Hopefully Robby when he comes,
my cousin, when he comes to see it,

573
00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:04,040
will enjoy what he’s looking at.

574
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:06,520
It’ll be appeasing to his eyes.

575
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:12,200
So that’d be…
it’s all coming from good energy.

576
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:16,920
That’s the one and only basis
or start that I care about.

577
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:21,160
This now is the survival that
I've had to adapt to and change to,

578
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:26,680
and put to rest those still waters
that made me the violent…

579
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:31,400
unaccepting and…

580
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,880
dangerous person to be around,
when I was younger,

581
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:41,800
which led me to be
incarcerated for nine years.

582
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:44,600
So enough of that.

583
00:51:45,720 --> 00:51:48,720
[gentle music playing]

584
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,400
I've had an authority
problem my whole life.

585
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:11,120
And gone against the grain.

586
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:18,880
This, and the years of mistakes
and the good things that I've done

587
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:25,920
over 45,
have all combined to conjoin to this.

588
00:52:28,720 --> 00:52:29,800
[Tania] Come here.

589
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,480
Here we go. Here. Come on.

590
00:52:35,720 --> 00:52:39,040
[Troy] I'm a bush black anyway.
This is comeback country for me.

591
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,800
I'd forgotten what you can
get out of it, you know.

592
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:44,040
Wood.

593
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:45,560
-No, not just wood.
-Heat.

594
00:52:45,720 --> 00:52:48,800
-You do that. But the thing is…
-I do that. [laughs]

595
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:52,240
…up here for me,
so I'm not away from you for another year.

596
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:54,480
Mm. No way. Never again.

597
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:58,960
You know how long it took me
to get back into the groove of society.

598
00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:00,640
-Mm, four months.
-Hey? Shit yeah, man.

599
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:04,960
Nine years of your
life’s a long time to be…

600
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:06,880
Just need to be loved, baby.

601
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:12,000
Love myself and be honest with myself
and be courageous enough, firstly.

602
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:13,640
-Mm.
-Absolutely.

603
00:53:14,720 --> 00:53:17,760
A lot out here in this bush
that white man don’t know about.

604
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,120
Yeah, I know.
You're proud of me, aren’t you?

605
00:53:20,240 --> 00:53:22,080
I had eight frogs
and I let them loose again.

606
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:23,800
Yeah, and I bet you
they spoke to you, too.

607
00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:26,520
-No they didn’t, that’s true.
-[both laugh]

608
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:29,680
-She loves her animals.
-That’s why I'm with you, baby.

609
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:32,040
I'm just a gorilla, mate.

610
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:39,680
-[gentle music playing]
-[magpies sing]

611
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:47,000
You get one shot,
but you get plenty of chances.

612
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:54,800
And to be not able
to envisage what they are,

613
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:59,160
to grab onto them, is where we need help.

614
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:04,160
Not only in the Aboriginal sector, but
in the human relations sector of society.

615
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:10,320
So people can see with their own eyes and
their own way that there is a chance,

616
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,400
and things do get better.

617
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:15,440
Like a phoenix from the ashes,
you can rise,

618
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:20,280
and make a lot calmer
your waters that you traverse.

Sometimes I think it sort

631
00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:39,080
when you're coming out of prison,
so many people have died.

632
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:41,560
So many people are gone.

633
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:48,600
And sometimes when I get,
like been away for years like that…

634
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:53,920
when you see a brother or a sister,
you're afraid to ask how their Mum is,

635
00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:55,680
how their brother is.
Oh, ‘How’s your brother?

How’s brother-boy going,
sister-girl there?

In case the answer comes back,
'Oh, she passed away.’

638
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:06,200
You know, and it’s something
you have to sort of tiptoe around.

‘How you been?’ You know.

640

You're frightened to ask, you know,
how’s someone going.

641
00:56:13,720 --> 00:56:16,520
One of the big parts of that song is…

642
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:22,440
You know, a crowd of people and sometimes
you expect to see their face in the crowd.

643
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,680
With a crowd of people and it’s like…

644
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:29,480
you just expect to see certain
people there but then you realise,

645
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:30,960
oh they’re gone, you know.

646
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:34,360
They’re gone now, so, yeah.

Christopher was released four months ago.

He is currently on parole.

He has never successfully
completed parole before.

[Christopher]
This whole time getting out is

651
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:55,120
a lot different to every
other time I've got out.

652
00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:00,000
Every other time I've gotten out before,
I knew I was going back.

653
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,160
Now I don't want to go back.

654
00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:05,720
It’s a big difference.

655
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:12,360
You know, I didn’t think it’s just in our
community, but in like a jail community,

656
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:16,520
a lot of it is, it’s not my fault.

657
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:19,280
Alex has basically helped
me to do this for me.

658
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:22,000
He didn’t do it, so I didn’t
know I had to it you know.

659
00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:24,040
And so you go down that road.

660
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:29,120
It’s like making excuses for you to
continue the other behaviour, you know.

661
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,480
Everyone always blames someone else.

662
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,200
If I was in Fitzroy and all that,
all the same.

663
00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:47,680
I'd be using drugs every day and then your
cognitive thinking goes out the window.

664
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:52,360
You know, you don’t fuckin' sit there and
weigh things up and think about things.

665
00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:53,760
You just go and do it.

666
00:57:55,800 --> 00:58:01,680
With The Torch program, started…
I come home and I give her a cheque

667
00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:05,280
with the money that I had saved
up from The Torch program.

668
00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,520
And she’s like, she can’t believe it.

669
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:12,440
She didn’t think there’d be like
people to pay for my paintings.

670
00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:19,680
So yeah, it’s… it does some
good things for ya, you know.

671
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:24,160
Doesn't just give you the money,
it gives you a self-worth…

672
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:27,200
that you are worth something.
You can contribute.

673
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:30,320
That’s what it shows ya, you know?

[Uncle Jack] Robby is now employed
by The Torch as a Regional Arts Officer.

677
01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:43,160
mentoring artists
recently released from prison.

678
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:48,880
This is the first time a former
participant in the program

679
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:51,560
has become a Torch employee.

680
01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:53,400

Watch television and you’ll see Scaley and
Jacko there, pulling in the biggest carp.

686
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:35,440
That’s about it.

687
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:39,120
[man] That would be fun.

688
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:46,960
Thanks, my brother.

689
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:51,400
[man] Showtime.

690
01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:54,640
We can go down this river
any time and get a feed.

691
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:59,200
Head down to the bush, get a feed.

692
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:04,440
Never go hungry here, because
we’re surrounded by the river, see?

693
01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:06,760
The Murray. Mm.

694
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:11,400
Plentiful, when it comes to tucker.

[Robby] We’ll go out this way.

-How’re you goin, mate?
-Good.

699

700
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:28,520
[Jackson laughs]
All the way down here.

701
01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:30,240
Yeah.

702
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:32,240
[Alex] What happened to your hair, Robby?

703
01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:36,080
Jackie cut it off because all the
other women wanted to brush it.

704

Wait for him now. Boom-boom.

[Robby] Yeah.

712
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:21,840
It’s a good place for me and
a good place for the people

713
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:23,200
who are part of the program.

714
01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:26,880
I wouldn’t want to be catching
up to everyone inside.

715
01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:31,320
I'd rather catch up to the
fellas out here, you know?

716
01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:35,560
That’s what it’s about,
so we can sit out here and have a yarn.

717
01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:37,520
Have a relax.

718
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:40,880
Catch a fish. There you go.

719
01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:43,320

01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:47,160
-[man] Yeah, Robby's on too.
-Robby] Nah, he got off.

[scraping]

722
01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:09,680
[Jackson]
Next few years I gotta just progress.

723
01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:14,720
I've gotta climb that ladder
of opportunity, that ladder of…

724
01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,440
awesome.
That’s all I can think, really.

725
01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:20,600
So, yeah.

726
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:24,680
[sighs heavily] The next few
years are gonna be pretty good.

727
01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:28,760
Yep.

01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:39,200

-[Kim] Yeah, bloody goggles.

-Yeah.
-Did she get wet? Did she fall in?

732
01:04:44,920 --> 01:04:46,640
-Well done!
-[Amelia] Thank you.

733
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:48,440
[Amelia] I'm doing a number one.

734
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:55,000
[Christopher] I can do something. I can
make a living if I wanted to, you know.

735
01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:57,400
I've got,
I could do things that people like.

736
01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:00,200
I can achieve something, you know.

737
01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:03,200
Whereas before, it was like…

738
01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:07,760
full on, commit crimes, the only
way I'm gonna get money, you know?

739
01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:10,880
And that’s all I know is just do that.

740
01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:17,280
Now I have another avenue,
another road I can go down and that,

741
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:21,360
make money and do something
that I enjoy, you know.

742
01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:23,240
I never had things like that before.

743
01:05:24,280 --> 01:05:28,080
And that’d be the same for
a lot of the boys in there.

744
01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:33,240
[Uncle Jack] Christopher is making
progress with his addiction issues,

745
01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:36,320
and has not used drugs in several months.

746
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:44,200
His daughter, Amelia, was four months old

747
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:47,600
when he was last
incarcerated for four years.

748
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:52,360
-[Christopher] Can I get some chips?
-You only get ice cream!

749
01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:54,720
Ice cream? Oh well,
I want some ice cream then.

750
01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:58,320
[Kim] Come on, get with the program.
It’s only ice cream today.

751
01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:01,000
-Here's… here's bark!
-[Christopher] Ah!

752
01:06:01,920 --> 01:06:04,280
-[Kim] Not too high.
-Higher!

753
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:05,480
[Kim] Use your legs.

754
01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:08,000
[Amelia] Woohoo!

755
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:09,280
[Kim] Use your legs.

756
01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:11,680
[Uncle Jack]
Christopher and his partner, Kim,

757
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,160
have known each other
since they were children,

758
01:06:14,320 --> 01:06:16,680
and have maintained their relationship

759
01:06:16,800 --> 01:06:21,000
throughout Christopher’s life
of regular imprisonment.

760
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:24,880
If Christopher can sustain his freedom,

761
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:29,240
this could be the longest
time they’ve spent together.

762
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,440
[gentle music playing]

763
01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:18,440
[Robby] I gave Troy a buzz.

764
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:23,040
We had a quick yarn and
then I realised he’s me cousin.

765
01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:27,240
Just having a talk about maybe some,
you know, some future projects.

766
01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:31,600
And uh… I was waiting for him
to give me a call back,

767
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:34,880
and then I heard that he’s passed.

768
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:39,960
So, you know, that was the reason
why he’d never called me back.

769
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,640
You know, people have said to me,
‘How did you change, bruz? How did you…

770
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:54,760
‘You know, how’d you change?’
I said, ‘Well I dove in to my problems.’

771
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:57,320
It’s like this river.

772
01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:01,160
You're looking at this river,
we’re right here.

773
01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:04,080
Just say this river is all our problems.

774
01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:08,800
Fuck that. We want to hump
it that way through the bush,

775
01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:13,000
as far away from it as we can,
so you don’t want to even look at it.

776
01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:16,720
If someone’s in there with you,
well obviously they want to fix them too.

777
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:21,920
So, that's, that’s how I looked
at it in prison for myself.

778
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,960
Being locked down 16 hours
a day in Barwon…

779
01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:27,279
there's a lot of time to think.

780
01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:32,800
For me, I had to go
right back to the start,

781
01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:36,600
then start addressing all
the issues, key, you know,

782
01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:38,680
pivotal points in my life where

783
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:42,960
certain things made me think
or feel or act a certain way.

784
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:47,279
And each, each time I dove in,
it’s painful.

785
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:49,560
You don’t want to deal with it,
but you can’t get out.

786
01:08:49,680 --> 01:08:52,080
You have to stay there until that’s fixed.

787
01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:57,160
It’s up to you. That’s the only way
you're gonna fix them. Dive in.
