Product Overview

It's 1990 and an Indonesian fishing boat abandons Iraqi and Cambodian refugees in a remote part of the Western Australian coastline. Whilst most are quickly caught by officials, three men with nothing in common but their misfortune and determination to escape arrest begin their epic journey into the heart of Australia. Pursued by an army reservist unit, our three heroes wander deeper into the desert, desperately searching for civilisation amongst the stones of the Pilbara.
