Charlie's Country Page #2
It's all that...
...white man junk food we eat.
They'll take me to Darwin.
Then you'll die
in the wrong place...
...a long way
from your country.
A long way.
There'll be no one with you...
...no one to look after you.
Right, we'll put you down
as a recreational shooter then.
What?
Recreational?
Hunting is not
recreational.
It's for food.
You still need a license.
How much it gonna cost me?
Sixty dollars.
Sixty dollars
to buy my gun back?
Charlie, you're not
getting your gun back.
It's been confiscated.
You're stealing it.
Look, you can't have
All right, you illegally
modified it
to be a concealable weapon.
You're lucky Brum
didn't charge you!
But I didn't know that.
I know,
it's just not an excuse.
I'm not
a recreational shooter...
I am...
...a hunter.
I danced for...
...the Queen of England...
...when they opened
that building.
I bet you never did that.
And again.
Okay.
Good thing you gave up
smoking when you did, Charlie.
Your lungs
are packin' it in.
Next time you're in Darwin,
we should get
your chest X-rayed.
But you gotta
look after yourself.
No more ganja, okay?
And you need
to eat better.
Eat what?
White fella junk food?
Yeah, it's a problem.
F***in' yeah, it's a problem.
See this? Doesn't fit.
I can't eat with 'em,
and I can't eat
without them.
I'm starving.
Well, look,
I'm not the dentist.
You gotta wait
for the dentist to come.
I'll be dead by then.
What are you doing?
Making a spear.
Why?
For hunting.
Catch something to eat.
Why don't you use a gun?
Why don't you go away?
Go and play somewhere.
One, two, three.
- Hey Charlie.
- Hey Luke!
What do you got there?
I made a spear.
Hunting spear.
Wow.
It's incredible
but I'm gonna have to take it.
What?
Well, you can't just go
walking through town
with a dangerous weapon.
It's not a dangerous weapon.
It's a hunting spear,
not a battle spear.
You know what happened
in that other community.
One bloke dead and the other
one in the hospital.
But you took my gun!
Come on.
It's a dangerous weapon,
I'm gonna have
to destroy it.
Well, f*** you then.
Treacherous bastard!
F*** those thieving...
...white bastards.
Why did you come here?
From far away...
stealing people's stuff!
Is this your land?
F***ing bastard.
I need to get money too.
I want my money!
All my money, the whole lot!
Where is it? I need it now!
What's going on?
That's a police car!
I'm borrowing it.
They took your rifle...
...and your car.
They took...
...my spear...
...and my gun.
I work for them
catching criminals
and they don't pay me.
They stole our land
