Trailer & Synopsis
Director Cate Shortland made waves with her sensual Cannes-selected debut Somersault, set in Jindabyne and starring an unforgettable Abbie Cornish as a girl in search of connection, presented here in a new 4K restoration. A catastrophic fall-out with her mum sends Heidi (Cornish, Bright Star) fleeing on a charter coach to frosty Jindabyne. Beautiful and fragile, Heidi searches for work, shelter and companionship in the alpine town, and finds hard partying and hook-ups. In a packed bar, she catches the eye of Joe (Sam Worthington), a local who takes her back to the Siesta Motel. His emotional reserve contrasts her vulnerability, and he’s captivated but wary of her intensity.
