 | | Molly Craig Kelly, the Aboriginal heroine of the 2002 movie, "Rabbit Proof Fence," died in her sleep on Jan. 13. |
 | | It was 1931 and Molly Craig was just 14, when she and two of her younger cousins -- Daisy, 8, and Gracie, 11 -- were taken from an Aboriginal camp at Jigalong, in Western Australia's north, and sent to the Moore River Native Settlement, 2000km south. |
 | | Craig's feat made the papers but was not written up in full until 1996, when her daughter, Doris Pilkington, who was herself raised at Moore River, wrote the book on which Noyce has based his film. |
