Special Event Screening of Rolf de Heer’s 2002 iconic outback western The Tracker, starring David Gulpilil,  Gary Sweet and Damon Gameau. 

 

The screening will be introduced by director Rolf de Heer and followed by a Q&A with Rolf de Heer, Gary Sweet and Damon Gameau revisiting the making of the film. 

 

When a white woman is murdered in 1920s Australia, a police officer ventures into the outback with a small crew in search of the aboriginal fugitive accused of the crime. In his group are a newcomer to the country, an old sage and an indigenous tracker who is not fully trusted by the racially prejudiced officer. As the pursuit through this dangerous territory drags on, tensions begin to rise between the crew members.
