EPiSODE iNFO
In 1973 Eddie 'Koiki' Mabo was shocked to discover that the
ownership of the land his ancestors had passed down on Murray Island
in The Torres Strait Islands for over 16 generations, was not
legally recognised as theirs.
Rather than accept this injustice, he began an epic fight for
Australian law to recognise traditional land rights. Eddie never
lived to see his land returned to him, but the name Mabo is known in
every household throughout the country.
In January 1992, at only 55, Eddie died of cancer. Five months later
the High Court overturned the notion of terra nullius. Underscoring
this epic battle is Eddie's relationship with his wife Bonita. MABO
is as much a love story as a document of one man's fight to retain
what he believed was legally his.
MABO traces Eddie's life - from a carefree young man of seventeen,
through his courtship and marriage to his one true love, up to his
death and the handing down of the High Court decision on that
historic day - 3rd June 1992.
