Synopsis

Dead Souls

In 1890, the year of the U.S. census, chaos erupts when a stranger named Strindler arrives in a small town in Arizona and requests money for providing the names of dead Mexican laborers. Adapted from the novel by Nikolai Gogol.

The Nightingale

In 1825, Clare, a 21-year-old Irish convict, chases a British soldier through the rugged Tasmanian wilderness, bent on revenge for a terrible act of violence he committed against her family. She enlists the services of an Aboriginal tracker who is also marked by trauma from his own violence-filled past.
