The View from the Shore: Healing Through Songline in Steven McGregor's 'Looky Looky Here Comes Cooky'

Accounts of James Cook's 'discovery' of Australia have long been told solely from the viewpoint of European colonisers, an imbalance that Steven McGregor's documentary seeks to rectify. Presented by spoken-word poet Steven Oliver and structured around thematically inspired tracks by Indigenous musicians – along with discussion of the events surrounding Cook's expedition by a range of expert interviewees – the film is an educational opportunity for all Australians, writes Rebekah Brammer.
