In 1970s Australia, ex-con Sparra works to leave behind his past and make a new life for himself with his fiancée Paula. However, his erratic and dangerous former cellmate Pommie, feeling betrayed, tracks him down and threatens to reveal his past, putting Sparra's new start in danger.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
Arizona Republic by Kerry Lengel
Muscled and ruggedly un-manscaped, Stapleton is an intimidating presence based on physicality alone, but the actor ratchets up the menace factor with a gripping portrayal of a man driven by emotions more complex than mere anger.
The Guardian
Performances are uniformly impressive, with Stapleton guaranteed a place in the pantheon of creepily charismatic Australian screen criminals.
