Moonrise Over Knights Hill

In the Spring of 2024, lapsed high-school besties Clare, Angie and Isabel spend a luxury birthday weekend away at the six-star Lothian Gate Southern Highlands farmstay with their partners in tow. While the women share a nostalgic bond, the men are strangers, and the simmering social machinations test the couples’ loyalty. Meanwhile, across the manicured grounds, the fraught relationship between the farmstay’s conflicted caretaker and his anti-establishment partner threatens to derail the weekend.
