The Story

Remembrance, and a reckoning

On 10 June 1838, twenty-eight unarmed Wirrayaraay people — elders, women and children — were killed at Myall Creek Station in New South Wales. What followed was unprecedented: the colonial authorities pursued justice, and seven men were tried, convicted and hanged for the crime.

This film traces those events with care and clarity, drawing on historical record and the voices of descendants who keep the memory alive today. It is a story of loss, of courage, and of the long road toward truth-telling.

About the Film

A fight for justice, remembered

Myall Creek: Day of Justice is a powerful Australian historical drama directed by Bradley Diebert and produced by Tania Marino. Based on the true events surrounding the 1838 Myall Creek Massacre and the landmark court case that followed, the film tells the story of a courageous fight for justice at a time when such justice was rarely afforded to First Nations people.

Featuring an outstanding cast, the film brings to life one of the most significant and challenging chapters of Australian history.

More than a historical drama, Myall Creek: Day of Justice is a film about truth, courage, reconciliation, and the importance of remembering our shared past. Educational, thought-provoking, and deeply moving, it is a film for all Australians—and audiences everywhere—to see and reflect upon.
