Independent Cinema for Everyone

Accused of murder, an Aboriginal stockman and his wife try to stay ahead of a fervent posse in this powerful period drama from acclaimed Australian director Warwick Thornton (Samson and Delilah). It's 1929 and Sam works for a preacher in the outback. When Harry, a bitter, racist war veteran moves into a neighbouring outpost, the preacher sends Sam and his family to help, but Harry goes on a booze-filled rampage one night and Sam has to shoot him in self-defence.
