Compass - Aunty Joan Goes to Venice

This is a story about Australian indigenous identity and faith on the world stage. Joan Hendricks is an aboriginal elder of the Ngugi people from Moreton Island off Brisbane. She is also a Catholic theologian and has written extensively on meeting points between Aboriginal spirituality and Christianity.

Joan travels to Venice for a major interfaith gathering, "Spirit of Religion". There she meets some of the leading religious thinkers of our era who are grappling with one of the biggest questions of our time: peace between faiths.
