The Furnace (2020)
Written & directed by Roderick MacKay this film stars Ahmed Malek, Jay Ryan and David Wenham. During the Australian gold rush a Muslim cameleer discovers a man injured during a gold robbery.
This film mixes classic coming of age and western themes in a story about the abuses of Australia's past. The plot covers the corrupting nature of gold and the original sin of Australia's birth. I really enjoyed this film, especially the way it includes forgotten people from history.
4/5
