From the award-winning creative talents of writer David Williamson and director Tim Burstall comes a riotous historical romp destined to change the way you perceive early Australian settlement.
Shipwrecked on Queensland's Great Barrier Reef in 1837, Englishman Captain James Fraser (Noel Ferrier) and his innocent young wife Eliza (Susannah York) face an uphill struggle for survival against the harsh and unforgiving Australian conditions. Waiting to be rescued, the couple takes up residency with the local Aboriginal people and watch as their mutinous crew transform into savages before their very eyes.
A classic Aussie tale of colonial hardship and bawdy beginnings, Eliza Fraser also features Trevor Howard, John Waters and Charles 'Bud' Tingwell.
