To the north, a track winds for 150 miles until it joins up with the rest of the world; to the south there is nothing but shimmering heat for over 1,000 miles. Balgo is probably the most remote settlement in all Australia. To the handful of whites this is a totally alien world; to the desert aborigines Balgo is home of a sort. There is no work, just an existence. To escape back to a life which still has meaning, the people sometimes disappear into the desert to find physical and spiritual sustenance.
