The Australian Outback is another world..lonely, desolate and mind-numbing.
So when a sophisticated Irishman wakes up with no memory of who he is or his past, the endless expanse ironically imprisons him together with the locals who are either naive and innocent or who know more about his past.
Even the secondary characters highlight what living and working in such remote isolation can do to the human psyche..it's hard not to go crazy from nothing to do and nothing to see.
The landscape itself is a key character...passive and active at the same time.
But it has all the ingredients of an Australian mystery..dark, raw, and the right dose of dry humour.
