Overview
Gold Stone, the award winning feature in Australian auteur Ivan Sen (Mystery Road), is really actually a complex and stylish crime thriller that explores themes of racism, human trafficking, police corruption, corporate malfeasance, and the trampling of native people's rights. On the road of a lost man, troubled native detective Jay Swan (Aaron Pedersen, Mystery Road) finds himself in the small mining town of Goldstone, where he could be arrested for dui by local cop Josh (Alex Russell, CBS's"S.W.A.T."). If Jay's dinning room is sprayed with rifle fire, it becomes clear that something larger is at playwith. While struggling to overcome their mutual distrust, Jay and Josh find a web of corruption and crime, that leads straight into the town's cold-blooded may or (twotime Oscar nominee Jacki Weaver, Silver Linings Play Book ) and its smarmy gold mine director (David Wenham,'' Lord of the Rings).
