"Samson & Delilah"Samson & Delilah
(2009, 100 min.) AUSTRALIA
Director: Warwick Thornton (Kaytetye)

Samson and Delilah’s world is small—an isolated community in the Central Australian desert. When tragedy strikes, they turn their backs on home and embark on a journey of survival. Lost, unwanted, and alone, they discover that life isn’t always fair, but love never judges. This deeply moving and richly cinematic film won the Caméra d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2009.
