Set in 1922 in the Australian outback, four men are tracking an aboriginal man accused of murdering a white woman. The leader of the troop is an officer nicknamed "The Fanatic" (played by Gary Sweet), a headstrong man who sees only the law as the single side. And in a time when Aboriginals were not considered "man", he does not see the target or the others that may be encountered on the journey as people but savages that can turn at any time. "The Follower" (played by Damon Gameau) is the youngest of all in his early twenties. Dressed professionally in greenhorn attire at all times in the hot desert, he is the least experienced on the manhunt but is eager to put his skills to the test. "The Veteran" (played by Grant Page) is the eldest and most experienced of the group and the one that was roped in for the missing. But the one leading the white men on the trail is "The Tracker" (played by David Gulpilil) an aboriginal man who knows more about the outback and the ways of the native people than the three white men combined.
While on the trail of finding the fugitive, the men encounter a small tribe that are unable to help with information. Interrogation gives no clues and the men and women are massacred by the Fanatic one by one. The young Follower is traumatized from the event, the Veteran is unfazed, and the Tracker had seen it coming from miles away and unable to do anything. From hereon the group of men's quest becomes one that will test them mentally, physically, and emotionally as allegiances start to tear apart and trusting each other becomes impossible.
