There is currently no release date in the U.S. for Tracks, but given its star-led cast and the North American rights resting firmly in the hands of The Weinstein Company, this transcendental adventure across the Australian Outback is clearly going to make a splash.
Starring Mia Wasikowska of Alice in Wonderland and Stoker as the real-life Robyn Davidson, Tracks chronicles the true story struggles of one young woman who decided to walk on foot (and with four camels, plus her dog!) for 1,700 miles across the Western Australian desert. Set in 1977, the story looks to be marketed in this Australian trailer as both a period piece and a spiritual trip into self-discovery through the boundless glory of nature or some such. Driver plays the National Geographic photographer who tracks Davidson’s exploits.
For any Aussie geeks, expect the movie in theaters on March 6, 2014.
