Tracks (2013)



A young woman goes on a 1,700-mile trek across the deserts of West Australia with four camels and her faithful dog.

Well-made adventure movie with a supberb Mia Wasikowska in the lead role with some beautiful landscape photography unfortunately fails to show the actual hardships of such a journey.

Maltin***1/2: "Absorbing, eye-filling dramatization...What seems like a story of survival and perseverance also becomes a journey of self-discovery for the stubborn loner, who is played to perfection by Wasikowska. Deeply felt screenplay by Marion Nelson, with great cinematography by Mandy Walker. An eminently satisfying movie."
