In nine segments Terrain explores the landscape of Lake Eyre and its connections with Indigenous people. A visualisation of outback Australia in which theatrical components of dance, sound, set, lighting and costume design combine to dramatic and intense effect. The soundtrack is contemporary, the design incisively restrained. An inspired and evocative portrayal of Indigenous heritage and an ancient environment.
