Summary
Two New Yorkers, 14-year-old Ridley (Burch) and his mother Gloria (Hill) travel to Australia to spend time with Gloria's estranged father-in-law Spencer (Nighy) on his remote Western Australiancattle station "Buckley's Chance", following the death of Gloria's firefighter husband in the United States.
Conflict arises between Ridley and his grandfather during Spencer's attempts at connecting with his grandson who always carries a camcorder, a gift from his late father. During a camping trip, Ridley storms off and comes across a wild dingo trapped in barbed wire fencing which he rescues. Meanwhile, Spencer is being intimidated by three locals, Cooper, Mick and Oscar (Sacks, Wood and Gooley, respectively) in an attempt to get Spencer to sell the station. Ridley stumbles on Mick and Oscar attempting to set fire to Spencer's hay shed and attempts to document this with his camera. Desperate to hide, Ridley jumps under the cover at the back of their ute but can't escape in time and ends up being transported to a location unknown to him. While escaping from Mick and Oscar, Ridley gets lost but is reunited with the dingo he rescued, who he befriends as he attempts to find his way back to "Buckley's Chance" in the harsh conditions of the Australian outback.
Upon discovering Ridley missing, Spencer and his station manager Jules (Pell) coordinate a search with the local emergency services.[1]
