Van Diemen’s Land Trailer

16th October 2009

Van Diemen’s Land Directed by Jonathan auf der Heide, Van Diemen's Land is the true story of Australia's most notorious convict, Alexander Pearce, and his infamous journey into the beautiful yet brutal Tasmanian wilderness. A point of no return for convicts banished from their homeland, Van Diemen's Land was a feared and dreaded penal settlement at the end of the earth. In 1822, eight convicts escaped in a fateful bid for freedom. This band of Irish, English and Scottish thieves were immediately hurled into chaos as their plan failed and they were thrust into the heart of a harsh and foreboding landscape. With little food or equipment they battled a merciless enemy - the unforgiving, barren land - a land where God wields an axe.
