Tracker is a 2011 British–New Zealand action-thriller film set in 1903 New Zealand, directed by Ian Sharp and starring Ray Winstone and Temuera Morrison.
Arjan van Diemen (Winstone) is a renowned Afrikaner commando leader of the Second Boer War, and a master tracker. After the end of the war, after the defeat by the British, he emigrates from South Africa to the British colony of New Zealand but is recognised by Sergeant Saunders, a British soldier who also fought in the Second Boer War, and is arrested upon entry. However Major Carlyle, also a Second Boer War veteran on the British side, and now the officer in charge of the British Garrison in New Zealand, respects van Diemen as a former opponent and releases him.
Meanwhile, Keremea (Morrison), a Maori sailor meets with his British girlfriend and they discuss getting married. A drunk Sergeant Saunders arrives with two of his comrades, and he expresses his anger at the Maori coupling with "pure British women." He and his comrades then beat and taunt Keremea, who at first takes the beating but after an insult to the Maori resistance to British rule gets up and fights all three until in the confusion Saunders accidentally kills one of his own men. Sergeant Saunders evades responsibility by blaming Keremea, and the British soldiers intimidate Keremea's girlfriend into confirming their story. Keremea knows that he will not have a fair trial and runs. After Sergeant Saunders convinces a sceptical Major Carlyle of Keremea's guilt, Major Carlyle with a tracker (Mr Bryce) and some British soldiers pursue Keremea. Major Carlyle knows that van Diemen is a master tracker and offers him a substantial reward to help them.
See him shining red and gold, rocket boots to make him fly
To defend the innocents dedicates his life
Evil ones all around, till he crush 'em to the ground
An avenger made of steel, he's the Iron Man
[bridge]
He's invincible
Man-machine for war
[chorus]
Under the armor you know there's a man
His greatest weapon his brain
Fightin' with weapons he did by himself
No one can stand in his way
He can be invisible, he has got repulsor rays
Honorable, strong and brave, technologic knight
Without fear he always fights for the justice and the peace
Armored and dangerous, he's the Iron Man
[bridge]
[chorus]
See him shining red and gold, once again he flies around
He's in search of criminals, nowhere they can hide
Hearing his metallic voice, they will sweat and tremble with fear
Knowing they cannot escape from the Iron Man
