'Savage River tells the story of Miki Anderson (Katherine Langford), who returns to her hometown in rural Victoria after ten years in prison. Miki is determined to move on with her life, but the close-knit community of Savage River is not about to let her forget the past. When a murder rocks the town, Miki immediately becomes the focus of everyone's suspicion. With the police closing in, she sets out to prove her innocence, uncovering long-buried secrets that will cast doubt on everything she thought she knew.'
