Tracks (2013) is a visually stunning and emotionally powerful drama based on the true story of Robyn Davidson, who trekked across 1,700 miles of Australian desert with her four camels and dog. Directed John Curran, the film stars Mia Wasikowska in a captivating performance as Robyn. It’s a tale of isolation, resilience, and the search for meaning, set against the harsh and beautiful backdrop of the Australian outback.

The film follows Robyn Davidson (Mia Wasikowska), a young woman in her 20s, who embarks on an extraordinary solo journey across the Australian desert from Alice Springs to the Indian Ocean. Her goal is to find herself and overcome the emotional scars from her past. Robyn’s only companions on this arduous journey are her four camels, her dog, and, unexpectedly, a photographer from National Geographic, Rick Smolan (Adam Driver), who accompanies her for part of the trek.

The journey is physically demanding and emotionally challenging. Along the way, Robyn faces a range of hardships, including harsh weather conditions, wildlife, and a deep sense of loneliness. As she navigates the unforgiving desert landscape, Robyn begins to grapple with her own identity, confronting both internal and external obstacles.
