Laconic cabbie Rex has lived his entire life in the small town of Broken Hill. He’s a stubborn old git, determined to do things his own way. After work, he hoists a few beers at the pub with his mates before returning home to his dog and a surreptitious relationship with his aboriginal neighbor Polly. When he learns that he has terminal cancer, he lights out for a doctor in Darwin, some 1,865 miles away, who is campaigning for die-with-dignity legislation and has a euthanasia machine. B...

Yet his biggest challenge might just be learning the...
