Red Hill

Synopsis

When a young Melbourne police officer, Constable Shane Cooper, relocates to the small high-country town of ‘Red Hill’ with his pregnant wife, he does so in the hope of starting a new family.

But when news of a prison break in Melbourne sends the local law enforcement officers into a panic, Shane’s first day on duty quickly goes from bad to worse.

Enter Jimmy Conway, a convicted murderer serving life behind bars, he returns to the isolated outpost seeking revenge. Now caught in the middle of what quickly becomes a horrifying blood bath, Shane will be forced to take the law into his own hands if he is to survive. A tight action/thriller, “Red Hill” unfolds over the course of a single day. Told with explosive action and chilling violence, the story is a modern day western set in high-country Victoria.
