Emmy-winner Beau Bridges ("Without Warning: The James Brady Story," "The Fabulous Baker Boys") stars in a tale of high adventure and romance set in the wild Australian bush of the 1840s. As an American unjustly imprisoned in a penal colony, he enlists a motley crew of thieves and con artists to help make his escape.

A small-time Australian horse thief turns to grander and more daring robberies - and becomes an unlikely folk hero. One of the first film roles for rock superstar Mick Jagger.
