Clip description

Shane (John Moore) and Robby (Wayne Munro) have just been thrown out of a hotel, and now walk the streets of Alice Springs. Shane doesn’t want to walk home and breaks into a car. Shane harasses Robby to get into the car with him. Robby wakes up in jail, disoriented.

Curator’s notes

The two brothers are on a self-destructive path, and we as the audience are taken along with them into a journey of blackouts and partially recovered memories.
