When Federal Agent Aaron Falk returns to his drought-stricken home town after an absence of over twenty years to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, who allegedly murdered his wife and child before taking his own life, Falk opens up an old wound – the decades-old, unsolved death of a teenage girl.
Critic Reviews:
- " The barren earth surrounding a drought-stricken Aussie town provides fertile ground for mystery, suspense and punchy emotional drama in “The Dry.” " – Richard Kuipers (Variety)
- " Bana back on home turf delivering another cracking turn against such an intrinsically atmospheric Australian backdrop is worth the ticket price alone. " – Kate Rodger (Newshub, NZ)
- " Director Robert Connolly's adaptation is a very gripping and polished film, commandingly performed and directed, with an airtight sense of tonal cohesiveness… " – Luke Buckmaster (Guardian)
