The Tall Man weaves a gripping tale that covers race, class, politics and even love with a filmmaking skill that belies its origins. It's one of the finest Australian films of the year.
What happened in the 45 minutes from Doomadgee's arrest till his death should weigh heavily on Australian audiences.
The story that emerges is a tragedy with no end in sight, and which has its roots buried deep in the island's ugly past.
A fascinating work which will provoke much debate for some considerable time to come.
It's clear and concise, the known facts and the deeply felt emotions all displayed. We see Palm Island through the eyes of the storytellers, but also get an insider's glimpse
It tells these complex series of events and the ramifications that follow it -- the inquest, the trials and so forth -- with such clarity that you really get totally involved in this very tragic story.
