Four men leave the small Australian town of Jindabyne for a weekend fishing trip. On finding the body of a young Aboriginal woman floating in the river, they decide not to immediately alert the authorities. Upon their return, the truth gets out, polarising the community.
The murder acts as a catalyst bringing feelings and cultural clashes to the surface, in a small group of friends and the local community. I liked it but it doesn't exceed the sum of it's parts which were done well but could have been better.
