Overview
In the backyard of an Adelaide mosque, an unlikely alliance takes root between Goolie, an Afghan cameleer and mosque caretaker, and Dulcie, a young Aboriginal woman navigating life, loss and love on Kaurna Country. As war, racism and bureaucracy press in from all sides, their bond - anchored in storytelling, cooking and kinship - becomes an act of survival.
Woven through this tender contemporary narrative is the story of Munarto, a Kaurna girl who lives through the devastation of colonisation in 1836. As past and present echo and collide, Logan St reveals the resilience of culture, the cost of silence, and a quiet revolution of friendship that begins in a garden where nothing will grow.
From the Kaurna and Narungga theatre-maker Jacob Boehme comes a tale that honours the enduring strength of his female ancestors, the legacy of the cameleers, and the spirit of resistance etched into this place now called Adelaide.
