Description
----------------
A young sister and brother are abandoned in the harsh Australian outback and must learn to cope in
the natural world, without their usual comforts, in this hypnotic masterpiece from Nicolas Roeg.
Along the way, they meet a young aborigine on his ñwalkabout,ò a rite of passage in which adolescent
boys are initiated into manhood by journeying into the wilderness alone. Walkabout is a thrilling
adventure as well as a provocative rumination on time and civilization.
