Synopsis
In 2018, the new Western Australian police commissioner made an astonishing apology to Aboriginal people for their past mistreatment at the hands of police. Three years later, the WA force is engaged in its biggest ever push to increase the number of First Nations police officers in its ranks. As this historic attempt at transformation begins, the cameras of OUR LAW are granted unprecedented access to the 2021 class of First Nations cadets, along with ride-along access to experienced Aboriginal officers out on the frontline. For 12 months, OUR LAW cameras follow the gruelling training and emergency callouts in one of the largest and most challenging law enforcement areas in the world.
Filmed and Post Produced in Western Australia
