Set in a not-so-distant dystopian future, The Rover is the tale of former soldier Eric (Guy Pearce), who has lost his friends, family and has one prized possession left to his name.
In typical dystopia style, laws are redundant and gangs wreak havoc throughout the land. After Eric has his last remaining possession stolen from him by a collective of criminals in the unforgiving Australian outback, he sets out on a mission to find those responsible.
On his way he comes across Rey (Robert Pattinson) a simple and naive south American who the gang had left wounded in their tracks. He takes Rey under his wing knowing that he can lead him to the gang and allow Eric to take back the one thing that mattered to him most.
Due for release on August 15th 2014, The Rover has already been receiving rave reviews since its debut at the Cannes Film Festival. Watch the official trailer below.
