After the resounding success of his western
"Mystery Road" Australian director Ivan Sen decided that it is too early
to send in the archive his charismatic character - the battered but brutal indigenous cowboy Jay Swan. The undaunted detective
became famous for his ability to cut open the criminal ulcers in the small communities of dusty Australian outback.
The motifs of social thriller are muted in the script of the spin-off and an action conversely is increased.
At this time the cleaning procedures are needed for a small mining town Goldstone. Dark things are done in the heart of
Queensland - people disappear without a trace, and an amazing romantic couple - the manager of the mine and colorful lady mayor
- shamelessly rule the roost in their tiny shadow empire.
A couple of provincial villains is played by universal David Wenham and incomparable Jacki Weaver. And this is great
progress for the duo, because when the viewer enjoyed their cooperative work for the last time, they were crazy freaks, at any
moment ready to beat each other (
"Cosi").
Now David confesses that he just adores Jacki, and Jacki's happy to have David as her love interest on the screen.
But words can't express, how the residents of Wenhamania are happy)))
