This groundbreaking film reveals the truth surrounding Australia’s love-hate relationship with its beloved icon. The kangaroo image is proudly used by top companies, sports teams and in souvenirs, yet as they hop across the vast continent some consider them to be pests to be shot and the meat sold for profit. Kangaroo unpacks a national paradigm in which the relationship with kangaroos is examined.
