The film

BMX Bandits (released as Short Wave in the United States) is a 1983 Australian action crime comedy film directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith and starring Nicole Kidman, Angelo D'Angelo and James Lugton. Stephen Vagg of Filmink described it as "perhaps the greatest Australian kids’ film ever, a brilliantly fun and high-spirited heist tale." In the film, a professional band of criminals is given orders to perform a payroll robbery. The law-enforcement-grade walkie-talkies which it intends to use to successfully elude the police are stolen by local teenaged kids, after which the gang is then compelled to pursue the juvenile thieves.
