Sweet Country

Australian Western directed by Warwick Thornton. The film follows Sam Kelly (Hamilton Morris), a middle-aged Aboriginal farmhand sent to help embittered war veteran Harry March (Ewen Leslie) renovate his ranch.

However, tensions between the pair soon reach breaking point and a fight breaks out, resulting in Sam killing Harry in self-defence.

Now a wanted criminal, Sam and his wife are forced to flee into the outback as local lawman Sergeant Fletcher (Bryan Brown) gathers his forces and sets out into the wild to track him down.

Meanwhile, as more details about the killing are revealed, many in the local community begin to question whether justice is being served.
