Profile of The Tracker

The mood of The Tracker is disturbing, bleak, and contemplative. The plot centers around law enforcement, murder, and themes of life is a bitch. It is a drama movie. In approach, The Tracker is serious and realistic. The setting is Australia. It happens in the 1920s.

Summary of The Tracker

Australian filmmaker Rolf de Heer (THE QUIET ROOM) turns his lens onto a matter that continues to trouble his fellow countrymen in this evocative drama. When an Aborigine is accused of murdering a white woman, three white men must treck through some perilous terrain to find him. Aided by an Aborigine tracker, the men undergo a tortuous physical journey while also grappling with their own mental, and often racist, demons. Meanwhile, the tracker slowly reveals himself as having a lot more power than the men first realized.
