The Rover

Guy Pearce and Robert Pattinson star in this bleak drama directed by David Michôd.

Ten years after an economic collapse has made life tough in the Australian outback, Eric (Pearce) travels from place to place in his car, which is his only remaining possession, and struggles to make ends meet.

When a group of wandering thieves steal his car after their own truck gets damaged and leave an injured member behind, Eric sets off to track them down.

In his pursuit he meets up with Rey (Pattinson), the abandoned member of the group, who he believes will have an idea of the gang's whereabouts.

Can Eric hunt them down and regain the only thing he has left?
