Shades

In Australia's Outback, project manager Rosset's vehicle is hijacked by wild-pig hunters and he is left without food or water in isolated bush country. Determined to get his vehicle back he sets out on foot to find the hunters and encounters a strange white light that seems to float through the bush. Mystified but sensing that it will lead him towards his goal the light leads him to water and eventually the hunters who are after a very large wild-boar, a Razorback. Confronted by the hunters a flash flood caused by heavy wet-season rains in the east in catches them all by surprise but Rosset and the Razorback find refuge ... the hunters however are caught by the rushing waters and in a final burst of frenzy one of them attacks Rosset. Aborigines believe that Beings from the "Dreamtime" inhabit the Outback which still retains the footprints and presence, the shadow, of these 'beings' which in this story play a role that is as unlikely as it is possible.
