Description
The story of an Aboriginal stockman and his family and their growing passion for “picnic racing” on bush tracks in New South Wales. Sunny and the dark horse was filmed at Collum Collum, an Aboriginal-operated cattle station in north-eastern New South Wales. The film follows the Aboriginal manager of the station, Sunny Bancroft, and his non-Aboriginal wife, Liz, in their search for a winning horse to triumph on the local picnic racing circuit but things dont always go their way. The story begins when Sunny buys a horse for his daughter to ride and races it at the Glenreagh Gallop. He then attempts to find a suitable stockhorse on the station to race at the local Baryulgil picnic races. But while training one of these he hears that a friend has a racehorse for sale and buys it to race at Baryulgil. The horse, King, wins at Baryulgil but loses at subsequent race meetings. Sunny determines to find another winner and buys a black horse, naming it Sambo. With the end of the season, Sunny is persuaded by his family not to buy any more horses, but then he hears that a friend has another racehorse for sale ... Unlike other ethnographic films by the MacDougalls, Sunny and the dark horse follows the lead of Jean Rouch in films such as JAGUAR (available on DVD from Ronin), playing with ideas of “ethno-fiction”, deploying the talent of Sunny Bancroft as a charismatic story-teller. Though filmed as an observational documentary, it was in the editing of the film that Sunnys yarn-spinning skills took over the shaping of the film, and made it unique in the MacDougalls oeuvre.--Kanopy.
