Ntaria Connect - 'Pmara Nurnaka'

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce our new collaboration with the Western Aranda community in Ntaria (Hermannsburg) NT, in the red heart of Australia's Central Desert. This production brought together Elders, community members and young people to create a conversation about connection to country, culture and community. Funded and managed by the Namatjira Legacy Trust, this production was part of the Trust's broader program of supporting, strengthening and celebrating Western Aranda culture and country. The project was coordinated on the ground by local community member David Roennfeldt and staff at Ntaria School. ‘Pmara Nurnaka' was created in March 2019, the result of a five-day Desert Pea Media storytelling workshop - co-written by, and starring, an incredibly talented group of young people, community members and local Elders from the local community. - with support from the DPM team, local linguists and School Staff. Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities. 'Pmara Nurnaka' (meaning 'good country' in Western Aranda Language) is a story about country, culture and community pride. A soulful, funk/hip hop track from Australia's heartland, this production is a contemporary expression of the importance of community, connection, country, culture, family and language. The DPM team feels deeply honoured to learn, share, create and build friendships and connection with the community in Ntaria. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved. These are friendships and experiences that are deeply valued and respected. This project featured the musical direction and production of acclaimed music producer Josh Nicholas (aka Hazy). We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work.
