The cameleers that came to WA were greatly regarded and respected after the 1880s Afghan Wars for their courage and were not discriminated against at all. Before road traffic in the Pilbara the camels were a vital part of supply and extremely well treated. This is a woke revision.

Bear in mind nowadays the only wild camel herds in the world are in WA in the Great Simpson Desert after they were let go in the 1910s when motors arrived and those Afghans settled into the community as well regarded citizens.

A story is a story, fine, but stories that warp fact aren't acceptable. My family has been up there since 1895 and benefitted then from the cameleers from Broome to Perth. They were highly regarded and honoured.

The ingredients are rich: in the 19th century outback, aboriginals, prospectors, Chinese, cameleers (uniformly referred to as Afghans even though they come from many Middle Eastern cultures),graziers, peddlers, Moslems, Hindus, troopers, and station hands negotiate wary relations. A hardbitten prospector has stolen gold in his possession and needs to find a way to legitimise it. He falls in with a cameleer and they trek across the desert to escape the law and other criminals in pursuit.

This is an outback thriller trying to be a deep and meaningful arthouse excursion. The slow pace eventually becomes tedious and a couple of plot glitches irritate. Talented actors work hard and turn in excellent performances, but they are fighting the director.

Life is complex and mysterious we are all unique and different from around the world , many don't have the time to understand or feel rather goes for easy quick judgment & decision .

Anyway

The Furnace is a rugged, sometimes compelling film about a lesser known part of Australian history. Set in Western Australia in 1897 it involves a land of danger and violence and gold.

Have a meaning full watch.
