Keller farm is located on the outskirts of Grenfell, a small town in outback Australia, where most of the district is suffering the effects of a soul sapping drought. Frances Keller, the widowed matriarch, has made her children's lives impossible, compelling all three to leave the ancestral home prematurely, and the farm quickly falls into disrepair. Calvine is the eldest, and was the first to go. Unable to cope with her mother's strictness she left as soon as she could to forge an acting career overseas. Rebecca and Frank were quick to follow. But life has handed each of them hurdles, and these challenges would eventually drive them home again, seeking refuge, and each wants to claim what is rightfully theirs. The year was 1964 when Calvine came back. She worked hard on the farm and strived to make a go of it, but Frances continued to torment her. On Friday nights she would camp out on the ridge with a bottle of wine and her smokes. But living under such stressful conditions was proving impossible, and her mother's increasing insanity was becoming dangerous, but a year after her return she is shocked to discover that her mother has met a violent death. Having no alibi she is arrested, but the ensuing investigation uncovers a surprising result. When the siblings learn who has inherited the estate an outbreak of anger and jealousy causes incredible anguish for them all. Rebecca and Frank boycott their mother's funeral in protest, but when Calvine learns the real reason why, the death of her mother is not the last threat she faces. She reconnects with a beau from her school days, and falls in love, but he is committed to someone else. Will she ever find peace, or is she destined to follow her mother into an abyss of mental depression.
