Mystery Road
From award-winning director Ivan Sen ('Beneath Clouds', 'Toomelah'), Mystery Road is a powerful and intelligent modern-day take on the Western genre, with strong social and political commentary.
When rookie Aboriginal cop - turned detective - Jay Swan (Aaron Pedersen) returns to his home town to solve the brutal murder of an aboriginal teenage girl, he is immediately thrown into a web of lies and deceit.
Alienated by the white-dominated police force he is attached to and ostracized by the local indigenous community, Jay must stand alone and attempt to unravel the truth before tensions boil over.
Beautifully shot and featuring a stellar Australian ensemble cast featuring Aaron Pedersen, Hugo Weaving ('The Hobbit', 'Lord of the Rings', 'The Matrix'), Jack Thompson ('The Great Gatsby', 'Australia', 'Star Wars: Episode II') and Ryan Kwanten ('True Blood'), Mystery Road is a nail-biting drama with an action-packed conclusion.
Starring: Aaron Pedersen, Hugo Weaving and Ryan Kwanten
