Eric Bana reunites with the writer-director of Aussie hit The Dry for this adaptation of Tim Winton's best-selling novel, co-starring Mia Wasikowska (Bergman Island). The film tells a story about the ocean, a beautiful marine creature, and a young girl’s power to change the world.
While learning to dive, young Abby befriends a magnificent wild blue groper, beginning her life-long journey to save the world's coral reefs. When the quiet reef at her coastal hometown is threatened by commercial fishing operators, Abby and her activist Mum take on poachers and developers to save her friend.

Where to watch Blueback
Blueback is a fairly simple environmental parable, and deliberately so, but it’s this specificity and attention to detail that sells it. Tim Winton’s primary narrative gift is to put you right there, in this place with these people.
