After being introduced to a charismatic man, 16-year-old Jamie becomes friends with him. As the relationship grows so do Jamie’s suspicions, until he finds his world threatened by both his loyalty for, and fear of, his newfound father figure, John Bunting: Australia’s most notorious serial killer.

Simultaneously acclaimed and controversial, this crime thriller stuns with its hyper-realist depiction of chilling, inexplicable human behaviour. Based on a true story, Snowtown finds visceral horrors not only in the gruesome deeds committed, but also the characters’ dire socio-economic milieu.
