Tracks (M) – coming to the James this Sunday 21 September at 7pm

In April 1977 Robyn Davidson began a 3,200 km trek from Alice Springs to the West Australian coast accompanied by three adult camels, one baby camel and a dog named Diggity. An adventurous outsider who rejected city life, Robyn, played in the film by the tremendously versatile young actor, Mia Wasikowska, reluctantly accepts sponsorship from National Geographic magazine which means she has to put up with the occasional presence on her trek of American photographer, Rick. But mostly she’s alone in the outback with the animals, including the wonderfully cranky and unpredictable camels. Don’t miss this wonderful Australian film with amazing photography and an adventure through the outback that most people would find hard to imagine.
