The Last Trackers of the Outback

Trackers have been around for centuries and when the police realized that it would be interesting to put them to use in tracking escaped and missing persons, Australia was still a British penal colony But in this age of GPS, 4x4 vehicles and helicopters, are we letting go of something more fundamental – an intuitive knowledge linking man to nature? Featured in this film will be some of the last great trackers of the outback, including George Musgrave, Teddy Egan Jangala, Tommy George, and Mitjili Gibson We will bring their most dramatic stories to life by recreating their gripping adventures deep in the unknown corners of the Australian Outback, traversing lush rainforests and wild rivers, magnificent gorges and deep water holes, dry savannahs, and red deserts in search of the soon-to-be lost Aboriginal art of the tracker.
