Traditionally, Aboriginal women have a ceremonial life separate and secret to men. Minymaku Inma (Women's Dance & Song) brings together Bangarra Dancers and Performers from the Ngaanyatjarra, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara (NPY) Women's Council for an exchange of ceremonial cycles, reinforcing traditional ties with women from other communities and celebrating the importance and power of traditional Women's Law.

This production features the First Nations language Pitjantjatjara (Western Desert).
