The Nightingale 2018

The film won the Venice Film Festival Special Jury Prize and the Emerging Actor Award. It tells the story of Claire, a 21-year-old Irish prisoner in Tasmania in the 1920s who was sentenced to seven years in prison. She was very eager to get rid of her abusive master Lieutenant Hawkins, who refused to release Claire. Claire's husband Aidan retaliates, and the Lieutenant and his cronies commit horrific crimes against her as a result. Unable to get a fair trial from the British authorities, Claire decides to hunt down Hawkins, who suddenly leaves his post to get a captaincy in the north. She turns to young Aboriginal hunter Billy for help, who reluctantly leads her through the rugged wilderness in search of Hawkins.
