An adaptation of the Tim Winton novel
Noyce’s Dirt Music is based on the best-selling novel by Tim Winton. According to Noyce, the film’s strength derives both from its Australian setting and its universal appeal: "Tim has crafted an Australian-based drama that deals with themes which are universal: love; grief; redemption; and the unstoppable emotional power of music. He has interwoven the journeys of three characters into a love story set against some of Western Australia's most breath-taking locations," Noyce says.
Set in the dramatic landscape of Western Australia, 'Dirt Music' tells the story of Luther Fox (Colin Farrell), a broken man who makes his living as an illegal fisherman -- a shamateur. Before everyone in his family was killed in a freak rollover, Fox grew melons and counted stars and loved playing his guitar. Now, his life has become a "project of forgetting." Not until he meets Georgie Jutland (Rachel Weisz) the wife of White Point's most prosperous fisherman, does Fox begin to dream again and hear the dirt music-"anything you can play on a verandah or porch," he tells Georgie, "without electricity." Like the beat of a barren heart, nature is never silent.
