Based on the best-selling novel by Tim Winton, Blueback is a timely tale about the ocean, a beautiful marine creature, and a young girl’s power to change the world.
Cinematography
Underwater sequences that'll make you hold your breath.
Practical Effects
The groper puppet—absurdly expressive, weirdly emotional.
Score
Nigel Westlake's orchestral swell = instant ocean goosebumps.
Director
Robert Connolly
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Eric Bana learned to free-dive for his role and did multiple breath-hold takes at 15+ meters. Show-off.
Tim Winton's novel is practically Australian scripture; the film had to fight expectations from every book club in Perth.
