Tracks

Based on the same-named memoir by Robyn Davidson, Tracks brings to life Davidson's 1700-mile journey, on foot, across the desiccated Australian desert from Alice Springs to the Indian Ocean. To pay for her necessities, Davidson (Mia Wasikowska) signs a contract with National Geographic magazine and agrees to have a photographer, Rick Smolan (Adam Driver), shoot pictures of her at various stopovers. And along the way, she meets an aboriginal elder (Rolley Mintuma), who escorts her partway. But truly, Davidson would rather be alone with her camels, whom she's trained to carry her gear, and her beloved dog, Diggity.
