High Country

2024

High Country (2024) is an Australian police procedural set in the magnificent Victorian Alps region in the small town of Jamieson.

Sergeant Andra Whitford, known as Andie (Leah Purcell), is transferred from Melbourne to the town of Brokenridge in the Victoria High Country (as the Victorian Alps is also known).

When she begins to investigate 5 missing people, she realises the disappearances might be part of a pattern.

*Spoiler alert* At the heart of the case is baby trafficking dating back to the 1970s

Trauma warning: This archive contains material relating to care experience including references to abuse, neglect, sexual violence, and institutional harm.

 

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
