Goldstone
Where worlds collide.
Directed by Ivan Sen
Produced by Arclight Films, Transmission Pictures
A gritty neo-noir thriller set in the Australian outback that uses a missing persons case to expose systemic corruption and exploitation of indigenous communities.
Indigenous Detective Jay Swan arrives in the frontier town of Goldstone on a missing persons inquiry. What seems like a simple investigation unearths an intricate web of crime, corruption, human trafficking, and coordinated exploitation of indigenous people’s land. Jay must bury his differences with young local cop Josh, so together they can bring justice to Goldstone.
