An Australian lawyer takes on the defense of a group of aborigines accused of killing one of their own. Plagued by apocalyptic visions of water, he slowly realizes his own involvement with the aborigines…and their prophecies.

On the unforgiving Australian frontier, American Ben is intent on building a life with Alice, the gorgeous daughter of a local rancher. Although Ben is in love with the girl, he faces some competition from local cowboy Jack. When Alice's father dies, and an unscrupulous creditor plots to seize her family's land, Ben leaps to her defense, an act that could lead to their marriage or his funeral.
