Synopsis

At the turn of the twentieth century, three Australian officers are court-martialed for alleged war crimes. With no time to prepare, an Australian major, appointed as defense attorney, must prove that they were just following orders and are being turned into political pawns.

Our take

One of the most acclaimed Australian films—including an Oscar® nod for its script—Bruce Beresford’s Breaker Morant remains a gripping anti-war classic, a subtle retooling of Paths of Glory shot through with political passion, outstanding performances, and golden hour photography.
