An awe inspiring movie on triumph of human spirit against all odds. Saw this movie on Zee-English channel, few days back. It's a true story about 3 aboriginal girls (kids!!) who were put in a confinement at Moore River Native Settlement, north of Perth and ran away from there to be back with their aborginal families.

The girl's ran/trekked for nine weeks along 2,400 km (close to a marathon a day for 9 weeks on the trot!!) of the Australian rabbit-proof fence to return to their community at Jigalong, while being tracked by a white authority figure and an Aboriginal tracker.

The movie is very well made and worth watching.
