Flix in the Wet - The Furnace

Set in the 1890s gold rush of Western Australia, The Furnace is an unlikely hero's tale, navigating greed and the search for identity in a new land. This film illuminates the forgotten history of Australia's 'Ghan' cameleers – predominantly Muslim and Sikh men from India, Afghanistan, and Persia – who traversed the nation's vast desert interior, forming unique bonds with local Aboriginal people.
