A bit unbelievably optimistic at times, this pretty Australian western takes a good-natured and sincere approach at exploring the racial inequalities of the early 1900s outback. It can be a bit slow at parts, but there's enough humour and characterization to make it worth the watch.

A new take on Westerns. Also get AMC'S, BROKEN TRAIL (2006, starring Robert Duvall, from mini-series) in a 2 Disc, DVD - Also inspired by true events from 1898 America.

A stark harsh reality check from Australia's Wild West time period.
