too many gaping plot holes and ill developed characters for me to care about any of these folks.

Beautifully shot and full of performances that take get straight into your heart. It didn't feel at al like it was trying to be an 'Australian' film. The story was minimalistic and it advanced very slow, but if you are expecting that you get time to enjoy all the other aspects of the film.

The craft is without question but the story lacks an authenticity to make the difficult subject area work as piece of art.
