Synopsis:

Set in Australia in 1902 and follows twelve-year-old Tom, who's father has dragged the family from the city to an isolated cabin at the edge of the woods with his evangelical dream--a mission to farm the land. But the dream has died and Tom's older sister has begun to question not only the dream, but her father's sanity. One night, three men arrive on horseback; ex-soldiers from the Boer War. Tom, like his father, believes they are providence, a gift. But one of them has a secret--he has gold. When Tom realizes that the gold has poisoned both his father and his sister, the cabin becomes a psychological battleground. Soon Tom is forced to choose between the ideals of his father and the basic, brutal laws of survival.

1902... the Australian Federation is a year old. A desperate pioneer family are on the brink of ruin, struggling to till the inhospitable land. When three wild-eyed strangers arrive at their farm returning from the goldfields, the family cautiously offer them a roof for the night. But their mere presence drives a wedge between father and daughter, sister and brother. Are their intentions of these men as sinister as they seem?
