Limbo

2023

Limbo (2023) is an Australian film starring Simon Baker as Detective Travis Hurley.

Hurley is despatched to an outback town to investigate the disappearance and suspected homicide of an Aboriginal girl, Charlotte Hayes, 20 years previously.

Charlotte’s sister, Emma (Natasha Wanganeen) and her brother, Charlie (Rob Collins) don’t expect much from the inquiry.

Nothing comes from Hurley’s questioning except the sad knowledge that the police have never treated the Aboriginal people in town very well. By the time he’s summonsed back to town, however, Charlie seems more willing to care for his children, who have been living with Emma.

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
