It follows an Aboriginal Australian teenager on a road trip in the late 1960s.
Beth (reading a newspaper): Here's a lady who had a hysterectomy. She took her uterus home with her in a jar so that her son and his friends could see it. Then she was going to bury it and plant a tree over it.
Husband: This is all you see in the papers? Why don't you read the real news?
Beth: That's pretty real, isn't it?
