Strangerland

Newcomers to the remote Australian desert town of Nathgari, Catherine & Matthew Parker’s lives are flung into crisis when they discover their two teenage kids, Tommy & Lily, have mysteriously disappeared just before a massive dust storm hits. With Nathgari eerily mothered in red dust and darkness, the townsfolk join the search led by a local cop, David Rae. It soon becomes apparent that something terrible may have happened to the Parker children. Suspicions run riot, rumours spread and public opinion turns savagely against the Parkers. With temperatures rising and the chances of survival plummeting each day, Catherine & Matthew find themselves pushed to the brink as they struggle to survive the mystery of their children’s fate.
