Factual error: The movie is set in Van Diemen's Land (now Tasmania) in 1825. In the final scenes, aboriginal tracker Billy is shot and Clare watches the sun rise across the water. Tasmania is a heart-shaped island 350 km across and down, and Launceston, their destination, is in at the top, slightly east of centre, on the banks of the Tamar River 65 km from the coast. The only place she could do that would be the East Coast, roughly 120 km from Launceston, or about half the journey she made to get there.
