The Tracker
In 1922, The Tracker (David Gulpilil) has the job of tracking an Aborigine (Noel Wilton) suspected of murdering a white woman, and leads a police officer, The Fanatic (Gary Sweet), his offsider, The Follower (Damon Gameau), and a seconded assistant, The Veteran (Grant Page), across the outback. The journey descends into an acrimonious and murderous trek that shifts power from one man to another, challenged by the indigenous people they come across - as well as each other.
