God was in this land and we never knew
30 July 2020
This is a documentary of strength of women. The APY land women have long been held as the custodians of story and song and here their determination to express spirituality in the German hymns of the settler missionaries, in. their own language and return to Germany is poignant. In some ways it could be seen as a triumph for colonial Christianity, but I dispute that. These women know the presence of God in their own stories and these truths are what is being conveyed back to the German church of Luther. God was in their land, if only the missionaries had bothered to find out.
