Sweet Country
An Australian Western set on the Northern Territory frontier in the 1920s, where justice itself is put on trial when an aged Aboriginal farmhand shoots a white man in self-defence and goes on the run as posse gathers to hunt him down. Inspired by real events.
“A sparse and beautifully shot film from the director of SAMSON AND DELILAH that puts a new, racially charged and uniquely Australian spin on a classic Western tale.” ~AroVideo
“This is fiercely powerful storytelling, simple and muscular in one way, but also conveying nuance and sophistication in its depiction of character.” ~Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
