Longlisted ABIA Biography Book of The Year 2020

The portrait of a unique and fascinating Australian entertainer and the profound impact he has had on the Australian film industry.

WARNING: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers are advised that content in this audiobook, contains the name and images of a person who has died. It's been 50 years since a teenage David Gulpilil Ridjimiraril Dalaithngu illuminated screens worldwide with his breakout role in Walkabout. It was one of the first times we'd seen an Aboriginal person cast in a significant role and only four years after Holt's referendum to alter the constitution and give Indigenous people citizenship and, subsequently, the right to vote. Gulpilil quickly became the face of the Indigenous world to white Australian audiences. But what marked Gulpilil, despite his fame and popularity, was the feeling that he was forever stuck between two worlds: a Yolngu man, a hunter, a tracker, who grew up in the bush in Arnhem Land outside any white influence; and a movie star flitting from movie sets to festivals. Able to exist in both worlds, but never truly home. With interviews from notable icons and friends - such as Jack Thompson, Paul Hogan, Phillip Noyce, Craig Ruddy, George Gittoes, Gary Sweet and Damon Gameau - Derek Rielly’s book unriddles a famous enigma at last.
