SYNOPSIS: First feature by Phillip Noyce (Patriot Games, Rabbit Proof Fence, Bone Collector, The Quiet American). A tale of two outsiders, on the run. One white, one black. Heading for nowhere fast. Shot on location in north western NSW and features Bill Hunter in his earliest lead role, and Gary Foley, Koori political activist. An extraordinary cult hit.
