Encore Screening
Saturday 11TH August

A deeply moving study of three Aussie boys who join an extraordinary outback program as a way of staying out of jail
Just outside Armidale, NSW at a youth program called BackTrack, Bernie offers unconditional support and a last chance for troubled kids to pursue their dreams. We follow Zack, Russell and Alfie as they travel to rural shows with Bernie’s dog jumping team. It’s a rollercoaster ride as we share the challenges these boys face as they try to find their place in the world.
