Karla Grant Presents: "Bread and Dripping" and "Yorky Billy"
Bread and Dripping
Four women recount their lives during the bleak years of the economic depression of the 1930s. Tibby Whalan, Eileen Pittman, Beryl Armstrong and Mary Wright describe their struggles to survive and maintain families when faced with widespread unemployment, evictions and hardship.
The film makes extensive use of archival footage and photographs from the 1930s to
present a unique insight into the lives of women in Australia. Made in 1981, the documentary has been restored from 16mm original film materials.
Yorky Billy
This film by Kim McKenzie is a portrait of a disappearing way of life in the Northern Territory outback. At Ngurgdu (Spring Peak) in the NT, an area soon to be irrevocably disturbed by uranium mining, 80-year-old William Alderson (known as "Yorky Billy") reflects on his life.

Buried in the Backyard
Buried in the Backyard examines true-crime stories of victims found buried in the most unsuspecting of places. While most people enjoy their backyard as a safe haven, others are not so lucky when they discover the horrors lurking beneath well-trimmed hedges and manicured fences. Uncovering the remains is only the beginning, however, as each hour-long episode follows a unique police investigation to identify the body, determine a cause of death and find the person responsible. Captivating recreations, along with first-hand accounts from those closest to the victims and law enforcement agents involved in the case, bring each shocking tale to life. As investigators dig into the "how" and "why" surrounding each crime, viewers are taken on an unpredictable journey and reminded that this could happen to anyone - in any home, in any neighborhood.
