Outback Odyssey is a story of adventure and a sojourn with an ancient people whose culture and identity are at risk. It takes place in a remote corner of Australia where a community of Aboriginal people has decided to forsake the self-destruction of nightly drunkenness and violence for a chance to rebuild their culture. They soon discover, however, that building a community on their native soil is no less a challenge to their will than forging a life on a small reserve within the town of Wyndham, West Australia.
