A young, restless Jewish mother and her family move to an idyllic country property at the base of a mystical and sacred Aboriginal mountain (Gulaga, or “Mother Mountain”), with the hope of starting a new life. Still haunted by a marriage break-up and a strained relation with her parents, she struggles to find a meaningful connection with her new partner. When her daughter is bullied at the local school, an enigmatic Indigenous boy Ren comes to her aid and opens her eyes to the magic of the mountain and its bucolic surrounds. But an unexpected visit from her parents reopens old wounds, with unexpected consequences.

Impressively shot over an 18-month period, Giants documents the changing drought-ridden landscape – from green to yellow to a Mars-like brown-red dust – from the perspective of one farmer, who risks losing everything as he holds fast to remain on his land.

Retour aux chevrons reprend six ans depuis la dernière fois que nous avons vu la famille Rafter. Dave et Julie ont créé une nouvelle vie à la campagne avec leur plus jeune fille Ruby, tandis que les enfants plus âgés Rafter font face à de nouveaux défis et que grand-père Ted a du mal à trouver sa place. Comme Dave profite de sa liberté retrouvée, Julie doit concilier ses responsabilités envers la famille.
