'Years ago, bushranger Mad Dog Matilda robbed from the rich to give to the poor, leaping over a cliff to escape capture. Today a group of teenagers turn up in Mad Dog Matilda territory, with their parents in hot pursuit. The kids try to keep a low profile, but want to explore the town and its secrets. A community project about dreams coming true.'

Adapted from the play of the same title by Kenneth Ross, Breaker Morant is based on the 1901 Boer War court martial of three colonial officers in the Bushveldt Carabineers, who are sacrificed to the dictates of imperial expediency. The interweaving of courtroom drama with the re-creation of the events leading to the court martial (the supposed murder of twelve prisoners and a German missionary) is given a degree of moral complexity, but the balance of sympathies is manipulated to favour the three Australian 'irregular' soldiers. The accused (Lieutenants Harry 'Breaker' Morant, Peter Handcock, and George Witton) are defended by Major Thomas, an inexperienced Australian lawyer who struggles to have his case heard.
