勇人遇到了和父亲一起住在车里的两姐妹,他便拜托父母为她们做饭。几天后,两姐妹的父亲失踪了。于是勇人和贵志带着两姐妹开始了令人意外的行动...,。 William Thornhill, an illiterate Thames bargeman and a man of quick temper but deep feelings, steals a load of timber and is transported to New South Wales in 1806. Like many of the convicts, hes pardoned within a few years and settles on the banks of the Hawkesbury River. Perhaps the Governor grants him the land or perhaps he just takes it - the Hawkesbury is at the extreme edge of settlement at that time and normal rules dont apply. However he gets the land, its prime riverfront acreage. It looks certain to make him rich. Theres just one problem with that land: its already owned. Its been part of the territory of the Darug people for perhaps forty thousand years. They havent left fences or roads or houses, but they live on that land and use it, just as surely as Thornhills planning to do. They arent going to hand over their land without a fight. Spears may be primitive weapons, but settlers know that they can kill a man as surely as a ball of lead from a musket. As he realises all this, Thornhill faces an impossible choice. Some of his neighbours - Smasher Sullivan, Sagitty Birtles - regard the Darug as hardly human, savages with as little right to land as a dog. When the Darug object to being driven off, those settlers have no compunction in shooting or poisoning them. Other neighbours make a different choice, and find ways to co-exist with the Darug. Blackwood has made a family among them. Mrs Herring gives them when they ask. Hostility between blacks and whites gradually escalates. Finally a group of settlers decides to go out and settle the Darug for once and for all. Will Thornhill join them? The decision he makes is with him for the rest of his life.母亲的死让长期离家的女儿蒂尔达Tilda(皮赫拉·维塔拉饰)回到父亲身边,法官米卡埃尔Mikael(维莱·维尔塔宁饰)注定要为他的儿子丹尼尔Daniel(劳里·蒂尔卡宁饰)的生活操碎了心。因为在他的眼里,丹尼尔和蒂尔达坠入爱河是件十分可耻的事,当然,他并不知道他的这对儿女约定用假装乱伦来惩罚独裁专横的自己。他决心滥用一切权力将他的儿子从罪孽的迷恋中拯救出来。然而,他所有的努力结果都是徒劳的,以致于变得越来越绝望,
