Oct 25, 2018 Wonderfully real . This film is desperate and sadly moving , as an Irish woman I can somewhat relate to the desperation and need too hold onto the language and traditions of a raped & dying culture. Wonderful film. See more
Rey R Jan 2, 2017 This is how it is on a mish. If you want to see what has happened to one of the most ancient, wise, sophisticated, spiritual and artistic cultures on earth in the last 200 years, watch Toomelah. See more
