The Pukara Tjukurpa is an epic songline, which traverses across much of the Spinifex Lands. The father and son wanampi (water serpent men) are travelling, creating large tracts of country as they go. The father is getting concerned as his son has a wild uncontrollable and unpredictable temperament, which as his power grows through the initiation ceremony is getting harder to manage.
