'Nothing Week' is the other week following pay-week when those with something left in their pockets contribute to the well-being of others whose meagre income has been largely absorbed by 'book-up' or gambling. Set in the remote South Australian township of Oodnadatta on the edge of the Simpson Desert, this enriching narrative offers a bridge into Aboriginal culture following the ups and downs which typify life in that unique community. A number of contemporary social and political issues are discussed in the context of a fictional five-week slice of time from the third week of May through to June.
