Synopsis: When Charlie McFarlane (Paul Hogan) withdraws from his life after a family tragedy, his estranged son, "Boots" (Shane Jacobson) decides to drag his reluctant father on a trip to fulfil their lifelong ambition to fish off Australia's northern tip in Cape York. The feisty Charlie wants no part in this crazy idea, but propelled by Boots' determination, they travel across the country towards their faraway destination. When joined by a young and upbeat hitchhiker, they are compelled to view their relationship in a new light. Old wounds are reopened and family secrets are revealed against a backdrop of beautiful landscapes and new perspectives. This heartfelt journey shows two of Australia's great comic talents in a story that will touch your soul as well as make you smile. Directed by Dean Murphy (Strange Bedfellows) this film will show that family ties, no matter how imperfect, are the ties that truly bind.

  • Good for a chuckle with a great story line. Made me want to get up and just go to Cape York.

  • An excellent depiction of Father and Son relations, entertaining and you feel like you are along for the ride. Shane Jacobsen is his usual self, so if you like him you won't want to miss it. Worth the watch.
