AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'It is the summer of their lives. Six Perth friends, young, privileged and bullet-proof, are back together over the holidays to take a trip into the Mid West. As they travel deeper into the land, they edge closer to the dark heart of the Australian psyche. When something unexpected happens, their impulsive decisions have lethal consequences.

'Which of your friends would be the best at keeping a secret? Who would crack first under pressure? And what lengths would you go to in order to protect ‘the group’?' (Source: http://www.bsstc.com.au/whats-on/flood/ )
