The Northern Territory is set to welcome another children’s television series, with Nitv commissioning Barrumbi Kids.
Based on books from Territory author Leonie Norrington, the 10 x 30-minute series follows the adventures of Tomias and Dahlia, two best friends that are growing up in a remote Northern Territory community.
Through fishing, hunting, and schooling, the children learn about themselves, each other, and living in both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal cultures.
Barrumbi Kids is being produced by Danielle MacLean (Mystery Road) of Tamarind Tree Pictures and Monica O’Brien (Drop Dead Weird) of Ambience Entertainment, as well as Julia Morris (Finding Maawirrangga).
The series will be filmed in Beswick (Wugularr), with Grant Brown, Deb Brown and Ismail Khan on board as directors.
Major production investment comes from Screen Australia in association with Screen Territory, while the project is being financed with support from the Australian Children’s Television Foundation (Actf), which will manage international sales.
