Stranded in the Outback after the suicide of their father, Jenny Agutter and little brother Luc Roeg (the director’s son) join with an Aboriginal youth (David Gulpilil) traversing the wilderness to fulfill his tribal rite of passage. Roeg’s first solo directing credit is one of cinema’s most original coming-of-age movies, as well as a haunting portrait of cross-cultural experience and sexual awakening.

A film by Nicolas Roeg
