Associative Producers contributed to the cinematography and post-produced the feature documentary film, ‘Etched in Bone’.

The documentary uses archival film from National Geographic, archival photography and contemporary footage filmed over 8 years, to shape the story of the repatriation of bones stolen during the 1948 American-Australian Scientific Expedition to Arnhem Land.

"It’s impossible to do justice to the power, both visual and cultural, of this film … It is characterised by delicate cadence – a tone that captures the continuum of enduring, ancient civilisation and most of all of how life, which comes from the earth, must return to the country from where it came”
