Plot In November, a white, city-bred teenaged schoolgirl and her much-younger brother become stranded in the wilderness after their father goes berserk. After driving them far into the Australian outback, ostensibly for a picnic, the father suddenly begins shooting at the children. They run behind rocks for cover, whereupon he sets the car on fire. The girl conceals what has happened from her brother and, after grabbing some food and supplies, the pair head out into the desert. By the middle of the next day, they are weak and the boy can barely walk.
Discovering a small water hole with a fruiting tree, they spend the day playing, bathing, and resting. By the next morning, the water has dried up. They are then discovered by an Aboriginal boy. Although the girl cannot communicate with him, due to the language barrier, her brother mimes their need for water and the newcomer cheerfully shows them how to draw it from the drying bed of the oasis. The three travel together, with the Aboriginal boy sharing food he has caught hunting.
The boys learn to communicate slightly using words and sign language. While in the vicinity of a, a white woman walks past the Aboriginal boy, who simply ignores her when she speaks to him. She appears to see the other children, but they do not see her, and they continue on their journey. The children also discover a belonging to a nearby research team working in the desert. After drawing markings of a modern-style house, the Aboriginal boy eventually leads them to an abandoned farm, and takes the other boy to a nearby road. The Aboriginal boy hunts down a and is wrestling it to the ground when two white hunters appear in a truck and nearly run him over.
He watches in shock as they shoot several buffalo with a rifle. The boy then returns to the farm, but passes by without speaking.
Later, the Aboriginal boy lies in a trance among a slew of buffalo bones, having painted himself in ceremonial markings. He returns to the farmhouse catching the undressing girl by surprise, and initiates a by performing a in front of her. Although he dances outside all day and into the night until he becomes exhausted, she is frightened and hides from him, and tells her brother they will leave him the next day.
In the morning, after they dress in their school uniforms, the brother takes her to the Aboriginal boy's body, hanging in a tree. Before leaving, the girl wipes ants from the dead boy's chest. Hiking up the road, the siblings find a nearly deserted mining town where a surly employee directs them towards nearby accommodation. Much later, a businessman arrives home as the now grown-up girl prepares dinner; while he embraces her and relates office gossip, she imagines a scene in which she, her brother, and the Aboriginal boy are playing and swimming naked in a deep pool in the.

He had long planned to make a film of the novel, in which the children are Americans stranded by a plane crash. After the indigenous boy finds and leads them to safety, he dies of contracted from them, as he has not been immunised. Roeg had not been able to find a script he was happy with, until the English playwright did a minimal 14-page screenplay. Roeg then obtained backing from two American businessmen, Max Raab and Si Litvinoff, who incorporated a company in Australia but raised the budget entirely in the US and sold world rights to. Filming began in Sydney in August 1969 and later moved to, and Roeg's son, Luc, played the younger boy in the film. Roeg brought an outsider's eye and interpretation to the Australian setting, and improvised greatly during filming.
He commented, 'We didn’t really plan anything—we just came across things by chancefilming whatever we found.' The film is an example of Roeg's well-defined directorial style, characterised by strong visual composition from his experience as a, combined with extensive and the juxtaposition of events, location, or environments to build his themes. The music was composed and conducted by, and produced by, and the poem read at the end of the film is from 's. Reception Walkabout fared poorly at the box office in Australia. Critics debated whether it could be considered an Australian film, and whether it was an embrace of or a reaction to the country's cultural and natural context.
In the US, the film was originally rated R by the due to nudity, but was reduced to a GP-rating (PG) on appeal. Critic called it 'one of the great films'.
He writes that it contains little moral or emotional judgement of its characters, and ultimately is a portrait of isolation in proximity. At the time, he stated: 'Is it a about and the crushed spirits of city dwellers? That's what the film's surface suggests, but I think it's about something deeper and more elusive: the mystery of communication.' Film critic Edward Guthmann also notes the strong use of exotic natural images, calling them a 'chorus of lizards'. In Walkabout, an analysis of the film, author wrote: 'I was stunned.
The images of the Outback were of an almost intensity. Instead of the desert and bush being infused with a dull monotony, everything seemed acute, shrill,. The Outback was beautiful and haunting.'
Walkabout features several scenes of animal hunting and killing, such as a kangaroo being speared and bludgeoned to death. The makes it illegal in the United Kingdom to distribute or exhibit material where the production involved inflicting pain or terror on an animal. Since the animals did not appear to suffer or be in distress the film was deemed to not contravene the Act. The film includes scenes of nudity featuring Jenny Agutter, who the (BBFC) surmised was 17 years old at the time of filming. The scenes did not pose a problem when submitted to the BBFC in 1971 and later in 1998. The prohibited distribution and possession of indecent images of people under the age of 16 so the issue of potential indecency had not been considered on previous occasions.
However, the raised the age threshold to 18 which meant the BBFC was required to consider the scenes of nudity in the context of the new law when the film was re-submitted in 2011. The BBFC reviewed the scenes and considered them not to be indecent and passed the film uncut.
Legacy Commenting on the film's enduring appeal, Roeg described the film in 1998 as 'a simple story about life and being alive, not covered with sophistry but addressing the most basic human themes; birth, death, mutability.' More than 40 years after its release, on review aggregator, the film holds a score of 87% based on reviews from 30 critics, with an average rating of 8.2 out of 10. References.
