When does someone really die? When life departs from their body or when the living realize that they are gone? These questions come to mind when watching this film from Ray Lawrence.
Four friends on a weekend fishing trip discover a body of an aboriginal woman floating on the river. They choose to continue with the trip and report the body only after they have had their fun. This sends shock waves through the lives of the involved men especially Stewart (Gabriel Byrne). His wife Claire (Laura Linney) finds it hard to digest what her husband has done. Racial and familial tensions start to run high in this taunt drama which has you hooked but does not reel you in.
