Freedom (1982)
A stolen car...a beautiful girl...a dreamer on the run...
Ron, a young man in his late teens or early 20s, but emotionally younger, has no visible, employable assets, yet rails at his status in life -- blaming everyone for the fact that his dreams are not coming true.

Freedom is a 1982 Australian feature film directed by Scott Hicks, starring Jon Blake and Jad Capelja. It features the music of Don Walker and vocals by Michael Hutchence.
Production
The movie was shot in May to June 1981 in the Adelaide area. Finance was provided by the South Australian Film Corporation, with additional investment from Filmco.
Scott Hicks later described making the film as:A very mixed experience. On the one hand, it was heady and exciting and intoxicating to be making your first feature film but, on the other, there were difficulties in the way the production was organised. The writer, John Emery, and I were kept separate from each other.
