About this movie

Australian western set on the Northern Territory frontier in the 1920s, where justice itself is put on trial when an aged Aboriginal farmhand shoots a white man in self defense and goes on the run as posse gathers to hunt him down.

Ratings and reviews

Nice cinematography but let down by bland script, unoriginal and predictable screenplay and shallow stereotypical characters. Greatly overrated.

One of the best. Messes with your assumptions. Could have called it 'The good, the bad & the ugly'.

Yet another confronting political film set on a stunning rural Australian backdrop.
