One day, the mysterious biotechnology company has decided to send mercenaries (Willem Dafoe) from Europe to the Tasmanian wilderness. This man's mission is to hunt down the only remaining thiase in the world whose genetics carry more risks due to a catastrophic weapon.
It's a character study, for the most part, allowing the complications and relationships to puncture the narrative only when they have finally penetrated the man.
With a rucksack of gadgets, Dafoe makes a believably cunning tracker, and when he finally confronts his prey, the mutual respect feeds a poignant parable.
