The Tracker Australian Cinema 2002
Starring David Gulpilil (Walkabout, The Last Wave, Rabbit-Proof Fence), The Tracker is a story of humanity, racism, respect, and retribution set in the outback in 1925, or thereabout. A, seemingly, very low budget movie, the soundtrack interprets the action of the story through song in the POV of the tracker. The plot is that a group of three white man accompany an aboriginal tracker for the purpose of tracking an aboriginal who reportedly murdered a white woman. The scenery is limited to the outback, four horses which drop out one by one, a cast of aboriginal people, and three white people who also drop off one by one. In the end, humanity wins out and justice is done. This is a good slow paced movie with some nuanced acting. See this, if you can find the movie. It is rare...
