Kidney Warriors

Three powerful women break down barriers in a flawed healthcare system using their superpower of comedy as their united voice of advocacy.

Follow the journey of three unique and inspiring First Nations women who are living with chronic kidney disease. Ngarrindjeri and Yorta Yorta woman, Nari Sinclair, Kaurna, Ngarrindjeri and Narungga woman, Kelli Owen and Adnyamathanha woman, Rhanee Lester navigate their individual journeys to find a balance between their health, work and family commitments.

With illness lurking and disrupting their everyday lives how can they shift from just surviving, to ultimately thriving? Using comedy as their superpower and laughter as a way to combat pain they still manage to get up, show up and speak up in order to have an impact within their families, communities and wider society.
