Set in the Western Australian outback during the gold rushes of the 1890s. To escape a harsh existence and return to his home country, a young Afghan cameleer falls in with a mysterious bushman on the run with stolen Crown gold. The film illuminates the forgotten history of Australia's 'Ghan' cameleers, comprised mostly of Muslim and Sikh men from India, Afghanistan and Persia, who traversed the Nation's vast desert interior and formed unique bonds with local Aboriginal people.
