LUCKY COUNTRY

(2009)

Smoking Gun Productions

Also known as “Dark Frontier”, Lucky Country places the fear of the bush, of being outmatched by something larger than yourself, back at the centre of Australian culture, suggesting the tenuous way that Australians might ever claim to be at home in this landscape. One day, your luck runs out… When three strange men arrive at an impoverished farm with rumours of gold, a young family discover that home is no longer the safest place to hide. Stars Aden Young, Helmut Bakaitis and Robert Menzies. Winner – Australian Cinematographers Society NSW and ACT Silver Award for Feature Film
