So I wonder if the characters in MAD BASTARDS really live up to there films name? hopefully they will in Brenden Fletchers debut featurewhich will premiere at next months Sundance festival. You Know right away the movies title will catch the attention of curious sundancers and it looks good in the world cinema category.the Austrailan movie takes a man on a quest to find the son he's never known, takes him on a journey across the remote and stunning Kimberley landscape. On the road, the man  questions his life of violence, the movie stars Dean Daley-Jones, , , Ngaire Pigram, John Watson, and Douglas Macale.

TJ is a mad bastard, and his estranged 13-year-old son Bullet is on the fast track to becoming one, too. After being turned away from his mother’s house, TJ sets off across the country to the Kimberly region of northwestern Australia to make things right with his son. Grandpa Tex has lived a tough life, and now, as a local cop, he wants to change things for the men in his community. Crosscutting between three generations, Mad Bastards is a raw look at the journey to becoming a man and the personal transformation one must make. Developed with local Aboriginal communities and fueled by a local cast, Mad Bastards draws from the rich tradition of storytelling inherent in Indigenous life. Using music from legendary Broome musicians the Pigram Brothers, writer/director Brendan Fletcher poetically fuses the harsh realities of violence, healing, and family.
