Rabbit-Proof Fence is a 2002 Australian drama film based on the book Follow The Rabbit Proof Fence by Doris Pilkington Garimara. It concerns three mixed-race Aboriginal girls, who run away from the Moore River Native Settlement, north of Perth, in which they were placed in 1931, in order to return to their Aboriginal families. The film follows the girls as they trek for nine weeks along 1,500 miles (2414km) of the Australian rabbit-proof fence to return to their community at Jigalong while being tracked by a white authority figure and a black tracker.
- Directed by Phillip Noyce. Written by Doris Pilkington (book) and Christine Olsen.
Molly Craig
- This is a true story - story of my sister Daisy, my cousin Gracie and me when we were little. Our people, the Jigalong mob, we were desert people then, walking all over our land. My mum told me about how the white people came to our country. They made a storehouse here at Jigalong - brought clothes and other things - flour, tobacco, tea. Gave them to us on ration day. We came there, made a camp nearby. They were building a long fence.
Moodoo
- The tracker is named Moodoo; he has one daughter at the Moore River camp with him, and he led Constable Riggs the other tracker in the search for Molly, her sister, Daisie, and cousin, Gracie, when they escaped.
