The extraordinary life story of a woman who is not only an outstanding athlete but a committed and articulate advocate for Aboriginal rights.
Nova is the many-faceted story of a complex, determined woman who has achieved a great deal for herself, for her own people, and for Australia. It covers not only her brilliant athletic career, but often heartbreaking stories of her family, her abusive first marriage and the media-fuelled rivalry between herself and Cathy Freeman and her passionate belief in reconciliation.
Above all, this is the portrait of a woman who says: 'I don't have tickets on myself, but I will back myself.'
