Synopsis: | Australia, 2109. Catastrophic environmental collapse has rendered the continent a parched wasteland. Civilisation has all but dried up. Marauding bands of crows' roam the wastes making life nasty, brutish and short. Yet in an old stone hut, hidden in a ravine, three men eke out an existence. They have stumbled onto a miracle: a freshwater creek. It is a secret that they will kill to preserve. We'd say welcome to the Gully, but the truth is, you're not welcome... No one is. | |||||
