518    Originally produced by National Film and Sound Archive of 
       Australia in 2001. 
520    This off-beat series follows the exploits of the Bush 
       mechanics, a group of engaging Aboriginal characters who 
       travel through central Australia. In each episode, the 
       Bush Mechanics who come from the remote Warlpiri community
       of Yuendumu are presented with a new set of challenges - 
       catching a car thief, getting a nephew out of jail, racing
       to an outback rock concert and travelling thousands of 
       miles to gather pearl shells for a rainmaking ceremony. As
       they travel through the desert in their clapped-out 
       vehicles, they solve multiple car problems with wacky and 
       inventive bush repair techniques. Featured characters 
       include Jack Jakamarra, an Aboriginal elder who introduces
       the episodes with recollections of his first strange 
       encounters with white people and their ways, and Jupurrula,
       the magic mechanic who appears out of nowhere to help the 
       Bush mechanics when they get into real car trouble. A 
       blend of documentary and drama, each of the four episodes 
       illuminates a particular aspect of Warlpiri life from 
       gathering bush tucker and living in a humpy to football 
       and rock and roll. Combining adventure, magic realism and 
       a distinctive brand of indigenous humour, the series 
       provides a unique insight into both contemporary and 
       traditional Aboriginal culture. A Film Australia National 
       Interest Program in association with Warlpiri Media
