The Dawn is from the album Restless Dream, a collaboration between indigenous activist Bob Weatherall and Brisbane band Halfway, with William Barton. The album is the story of Bob's experiences in the repatriation of Aboriginal remains from museums, universities and galleries back to Australia, back to country and reburial.
This footage was from the live launch of the album at The Tivoili theatre in Brisbane as part of the Brisbane Festival in 2021.
Restless Dream has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council and supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland.
