When Charlie McFarlane (Paul Hogan) withdraws from his life after a family tragedy, his estranged son, Boots (Shane Jacobson) decided to drag his reluctant father on a trip to fulfill their lifelong ambition to fish off Australia’s northern tip in Cape York. The Feisty Charlie wants no part in this crazy idea, but propelled by Boots’ determination, they travel across the country towards their faraway destination. When joined by a young and upbeat hitchhiker, they are compelled to view their relationship in a new light. Old wounds are reopened and family secrets are revealed against a backdrop of beautiful landscapes and new perspectives. (StudioCanal UK)
