SYNOPSIS
CACTUS, featuring Travis McMahon, David Lyons, Bryan Brown and Kenny’s Shane Jacobson is the debut feature film from writer and director Jasmine Yuen-Carrucan. Set against the unforgiving landscape of the Australian outback, CACTUS inhabits a world where the line between victim and villain is easily blurred. John Kelly (Travis McMahon) is an ordinary man stuck between a rock and a much harder place. He needs cash. Fast.
He accepts a job to kidnap and deliver professional gambler Eli Jones (David Lyons) to his keepers in the Australian outback: No questions asked. The kidnapping is meticulously planned, but not without its foils. A meddling outback cop -
played by legendary actor Bryan Brown - and a hapless truckie (Shane Jacobson) unwittingly become unexpected players in the deadly game. With no on-the-job experience, John sets out to settle the task at hand with his only companion, Bonnie; a red, grunting 1972 Ford Fairmont XA. The journey takes both captor and hostage out of the safety of the city, deep into the darkness of the desert where choices will be made with tragic consequences. As time and distance roll by, the courage and endurance of both is pushed to the limit in a land where the point of no return is hard to see through the bitumen haze. The film is written and directed by Jasmine Yuen-Carrucan. Executive producer is Bryan Brown with Paul Sullivan producing. Produced in association with the Australian Film Commission, the New South Wales Film and Television Office and Open Space Films, CACTUS is a New Town Films production.
Hoyts distributes the film in Australia and New Zealand. Television rights have been pre-sold to Channel Nine.
