Call Me Mum

The narrative centers on Kate, who is accompanying her foster son Warren, a Torres Strait Islander, to meet his birth mother, Flo, who is critically ill in Brisbane. This reunion is not only significant for Warren but also highlights the complexities involved in Indigenous family dynamics and the impact of historical separation caused by white authorities.

As they navigate their emotions and the gravity of their circumstances, Kate's parents, Keith and Dellmay, have their own plans for the reunion, adding layers to the story. The film, produced by Big & Little Films Pty. Ltd. and SBS, offers a poignant exploration of identity, belonging, and familial ties within the context of Indigenous Australian experiences.
