Story Synopsis

Adapted from the play by Kenneth Ross, ‘Breaker’ Morant is a classic military drama about a true controversial incident in Australian history. Tautly directed by Oscar®-nominated writer/director Bruce Beresford (Driving Miss Daisy, Tender Mercies), the film tells of three Australian soldiers (dedicated performances by Woodward, Brown and Fitz-Gerald), who are brought to trial for executing Boer prisoners during the Boer War (1899-1902). This intelligent, thrilling drama will surely please fans of A Few Good Men.
