It’s Toby Ackland’s 18th birthday party down at the beach – that should mean heaps of drinking, drugs and good clean fun. But by the morning a 14-year-old girl is found dead in the sand – raped by three boys and bashed with a rock. Who is responsible? The boy? The girl? Or the whole town?

Blackrock is an intimate and strongly shaped Australian drama which examines community, class and the social forces behind the impulse to violence in individual lives. Blackrock is based on the real-world sexual assault and murder of 14-year-old Leigh Leigh in 1989.
