Take a look to this new beautiful poster of Sweet Country, the upcoming Australian drama western movie directed by Warwick Thornton:
SWEET COUNTRY
Justice itself is put on trial.
A film by Warwick Thornton.
Inspired by true events.
“Inspired by real events, Sweet Country is a period western set in 1929 in the outback of the Northern Territory, Australia. Aboriginal stockman Sam Kelly (Hamilton Morris) works the land of a kind preacher, Fred Smith (Sam Neill), living and laboring in a respectful, if diffident, harmony. But when a bitter and often-drunk war veteran named Harry March (Ewen Leslie) returns to town, trouble escalates and Sam is forced to kill in self-defense. Shocked, afraid, and with a deep distrust in the impartiality of settler authority, Sam and his wife, Lizzie (Natassia Gorey-Furber), go on the run. Urgently pursued by a posse led by Sergeant Fletcher (Bryan Brown) and Aboriginal tracker Archie (Gibson John), expert bushman Sam must ultimately decide which of several looming unknowns to face.”
Let’s hope the aboriginal and his family will manage to make it out alive!
