Inhaltsangabe

2028, Northern Rivers, NSW. Amidst a backdrop of drought, pandemic and resource scarcity, an automated robo-guard patrol system tears through the region and rounds up members of the community. Three friends – Gale, Sara and Lis – persevere through separate hardships as their stories of family violence, stolen generation, and gender dysphoria emerge. With Gale in a cell in a quarantine facility, Lis with two children at the edge of town and the third stuck out on a rural property in isolation while her medications run out, the love the women have for each other shines through. Will they be able to reunite and what will be the cost on peoples' lives?
