About the film
Award-winning indigenous photographer Bindi Cole travels from her Melbourne home to the remote far North of Australia, to document the beautiful and private world of the transgender ‘Sistergirls’ of the Tiwi Islands. ‘Sistagirl’ is a journey that defies existing stereotypes of what it means to be an indigenous Australian today. It is the story of acclaimed photographer Bindi Cole’s next attempt to artistically question what constitutes an Aboriginal identity. The film deliberately poses as many questions as it answers about racial and gender perception and identity.
Duration: 55 minutes.
Written, produced & directed by: Donna McCrum & Andy Canny
Made in: Australia.
