he new Australian psychological thriller and Scream-Fest International Film Festival winner, Sweet River – distributed by Filmink Presents – will make its debut in Australia and New Zealand as a Netflix Film.
In the haunting Sweet River, Hana (Lisa Kay, Heartbeat, Vera, DCI Banks and Indian Summers) returns to the sleepy town of Billins, nestled deep in the sugar cane fields, where her 4-year-old son Joey was abducted by notorious serial killer Simpkins (Jack Ellis), and is now presumed dead.
On hearing the news that Simpkins had died and her son’s DNA was found on his property, the emotionally damaged Hana rents a small farmhouse in the valley near to where Simpkins lived and mounts her own investigation.
