SYNOPSIS

Samson and Delilah’s world is small-an isolated community in the Central Australian desert. When tragedy strikes they turn their backs on home and embark on a journey of survival. Lost, unwanted and alone they discover that life isn’t always fair, but love never judges. A winner of numerous international awards, Samson and Delilah marks the emergence of a major new talent in filmmaker Warwick Thornton. Offering a rare insight into the issues confronting the youth of a lost generation of Aborigines, it has since been hailed by critics as the one of the greatest films ever to come out of Australia.
