In 1928, following the murder of a white dingo trapper, central Australia would witness the last known massacre of its Indigenous people. With over one hundred killed during a series of punitive expeditions, those who survived fled far and wide from the massacre sites. Denied a voice at the official inquiry and dislocated from their lands, the survivors passed down the story of this bloody episode to their children and grandchildren.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
