Summary Two rough diamonds One French Firecracker and a whole heap of Outback! Elisa Guittet a spoilt girl from Paris runs away from the bright lights, and the family business, and comes to remote Outback Australia to find herself and sort out her life. In an attempt to get her back her parents have cancelled her credit cards. She finds herself alone and in the middle of nowhere. After a chance meeting with two lovable rogues, Phil O'Brien a country singing wheeling dealing nomad, and his companion ex jailbird Al Zimdahl, a journey of a lifetime begins. At first there is a complete clash of cultures as our unlikely trio head through the Outback on a journey of discovery. Things get beer soaked and bull dust coated as Elisa's new found freedom takes shape. But after a rocky start a real camaraderie begins to form and Elisa evaluates her life and her former materialistic ways. Then a tragic twist of fate entails when Phil O'Brien disappears believed to be taken by a Crocodile. The film was shot on a very small budget and the story is simple but poignant, and the combination of French culture verses the Northern Territory Outback is really entertaining. Filmed entirely on location in the remote Northern Territory of Australia, this charming road trip is jam packed with some great home-grown music, and plenty of sun burnt humorus scenarios, as our three very diverse characters sing their way from the rustic Red Centre of Australia, all the way up to the lush tropical North.
