Product Overview

Warwick Thornton's new film, a grim, historically inspired story of death and injustice in the Australian outback, draws upon and subverts elements of the classic western. As Jasmine Crittenden finds, the film offers complex observations on white and Indigenous relations of the past, as well as the echoes that linger in the present.
