In this montage of memoir, art, silk paintings, and photographs, Sally Bin Demin remembers her childhood growing up in Broome during the 1940s and 50s. As one of the 'after the war kids', Sally's lifestyle was embedded in the many cultural traditions of the people who lived in the old pearling town. She had the world at her doorstep.
Once in Broome paints a vivid picture of a bygone era in which the local community and its traditions played a significant role in the upbringing of its children. Sally's narrative offers a unique perspective on life in post-war Australia, seamlessly blending personal memoir with artistic expressions.
