It centres on a man’s legal battle for recognition of Indigenous land ownership in Australia. he second ilm is Terra Vermelha (Birdwatchers, Marco Bechis, 2008), which centres on the violence endured by a contemporary Brazilian Indigenous group attempting to reclaim their traditional lands occupied by agribusiness barons. Based on comparative analysis of Mabo and Terra Vermelha, this article discusses the similar challenges faced by Indigenous nations in these two countries, especially the colonial dispossession of their ancestral territories and the postcolonial obstacles to reclaim and exercise self-determination over them. 2016 artículo científico 2175-8026 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=478355263002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4783 Ilha do Desterro: A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies application/pdf Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina Ilha do Desterro: A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.69
