A traditional story is enacted by a large dance group from Lockhart River, in the north of Cape York. It depicts the abduction of a young boy from a group of sleeping children by a spirit man. His mother discovers her child missing, people cry and a group of warriors is dispatched to retrieve the boy. The boy is rescued and his abductor is speared to death.
