"The following song was composed during the late 1988 and early 1989. It is a lengthy song which relates to incidents during the making of the film Buwarrala Akarriya (Journey East), when thirty Yanyuwa people and a film crew walked from Borroloola to Manangoora ... The whole event centred around the re-creation of taking ... initiates to Manangoora for the ceremonies which would make them men." (Bradley, J.
