Come On An Adventure in this Must-See Doco
Four generations of song women that make up The Central Australian Aboriginal Women's Choir, go on an historic tour of Germany, to take back the hymns that were given to their great grandparents by the German Lutherans over a century ago, but in their own Western Arrarnta and Pitjantjatjara languages and on their own terms!
The Song Keepers is a remarkable story of cultural survival, dignity against the odds and the power of the human spirit and voice. Literally.
Come on an adventure as the unlikeliest band on earth goes on tour… to the other side of the world!

Critics Reviews for The Song Keepers
- “As astonishing as the underlying situation remains, and as vibrant as the melodies are to hear, it's the stories behind the choir that resound even after the choir stops.” – Sarah Ward, Goethe-Institute Australien Magazine
- “Though a bit repetitive, the film is a satisfying celebration of these women, their conductor, Morris Stuart, and their music.” – David Stratton, The Australian
- “While there are problems here (and a lack of real tension), the ladies themselves are engaging and their singing is beautiful.” – David ‘Mad Dog’ Bradley, Adelaide Review
