      Set against the backdrop of 1980s North Queensland, a group of directionless young men confront their identities amidst the chaos of a resource boom. As they navigate their journey, themes of Australian masculinity and environmental consciousness emerge, highlighting the need for respect towards the land. The narrative evokes a sense of wanderlust reminiscent of Jack Kerouac’s style, blending personal exploration with a poignant message about the consequences of reckless exploitation of nature.
