Mia Wasikowska stars in this inspirational true story about one woman’s extraordinary odyssey through the Australian Outback.
Director: John Curran
Overview
Mia Wasikowska stars in this inspirational true story about one woman’s extraordinary odyssey through the Australian Outback. Driven by untamed ambition but short of money, Robyn Davidson reluctantly agrees to have her solo 2.7km trek through the wilderness documented by National Geographic photographer Rick Smolan (Adam Driver), with whom she begins a peripatetic relationship.
The resulting magazine articles would become the basis for John Curran’s mesmerising film, a gloriously photographed paean to both one woman’s courage and to the magnificent land she traverses. Tracks received its UK premiere at the 2013 BFI London Film Festival.
