THE NIGHTINGALE is a meditation on the horrors of Australian colonization, set at the turn of the 19th century. The film follows Clare, a 21-year-old native Irish wife and mother held captive beyond her 7-year sentence, desperate to be free of her obsessed master, British lieutenant Hawkins. Clares husband Aidan intervenes with devastating consequences for all. When British authorities fail to deliver justice, Clare pursues Hawkins, who leaves his post suddenly to secure a captaincy up north. Unfamiliar with the Tasmanian wilderness she enlists the help of an orphaned Aboriginal tracker Billy. Marked by their traumas, the two fight to overcome their distrust and prejudices against the backdrop of Australias infamous Black War.
Stripped of her humanity and repeatedly violated without recourse, a young Irish convict is left for dead by a depraved British lieutenant and his degenerate colonialist cronies. With nothing left to lose, she enlists the services of an orphaned Aboriginal tracker to navigate the Tasmanian wilderness and exact revenge.
