In the gritty Australian Outback, Indigenous Detective Jay Swan arrives in the frontier town of Goldstone to investigate a missing persons inquiry that unearths an intricate web of crime, corruption, human trafficking, and coordinated exploitation of indigenous people's land. As he delves deeper into the case, Jay must form an uneasy alliance with local cop Josh Waters to bring justice to Goldstone. The film's fluid handling of dusty tough-guy dynamics recaptures the spirit of classic noir films, while succinctly revisiting weighty thematic strands that underscore the harsh realities of life in rural Australia.
