Philip Noyce directs this Australian drama based on the book by Doris Pilkington Garimara. In 1931, mixed-race sisters Molly (Everlyn Sampi) and Daisy (Tianna Sansbury) and their cousin Gracie (Laura Monaghan) are forcibly taken from their families in Jigalong, sent to a settlement to be trained as servants and forced to forget their family and Aboriginal heritage. However, Molly leads the girls in a daring escape across 1,500 miles of outback with no water and only the fence erected across the country to stop the epidemic of rabbits as a guide.
