This film is about an Australian effort to prevent that country's black bushmen from mixing with white people and creating a third race.
The half cast children of that country were abducted from their homes and familles and taken to a camp 1200 miles away to be either placed into schools and absorbed into white society or trained as domestic help, depending on the lightness of their skin.
The story of 3 young girls and their nine week walk back home was beautifully filmed and quite courageous. I highly recommend watching.

I had a VERY nasty/funny comment to make but, I am not sure you would take it in the spirit it was intended so, I will just say: thanks for the recommendation.
