独特的河剧情简介:独特的河其余地域的于2015年上映,导演是Daina Reid ,独特的河具体引见: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, he`s 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 don`t apply. However he gets the land, it`s prime riverfront acreage. It looks certain to make him rich. There`s just one problem with that land: it`s already owned. It`s been part of the territory of the Darug people for perhaps forty thousand years. They haven`t left fences or roads or houses, but they live on that land and use it, just as surely as Thornhill`s planning to do. They aren`t 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.
