Sen (who also shoots, scores and edits) goes walkabout through the minefield of contemporary Australian culture, offering an evocative snapshot of an unravelling crime scene - social, racial and economic.

A superior and taut outback adventure, you'd have to go back to Samson and Delilah to find an Australian feature this bonsa.

Slow-burning but very powerful.

An exploration of racial tensions through a radically placed protagonist, as well as a rousing finale, compensate for the lack of narrative oomph.
