A harrowing true-crime drama about a mother's fight against public suspicion and a flawed justice system after her daughter vanishes in the Australian outback.

Based on the true story of Lindy Chamberlain who, during a family camping trip to Ayers Rock in central Australia, claimed she witnessed a dingo take her baby daughter, Azaria, from their tent. Azaria's body was never found and, after investigations and two public inquests, she is charged with murder.
