Shortly after the mysterious death of sixteen year old Alice Palmer, her family summons a psychic and a parapsychologist into their home and discovers that the secretive teen had been leading a double life. Alice was swimming in a local dam when she drowned tragically. Later, after her body is recovered and the coroner issues a verdict of accidental death, Alice is laid to rest and her family returns home to grieve in peace. The Palmer's mournful silence is short-lived, however, when a series of strange occurrences in and around their home leaves them convinced that they are experiencing something supernatural. Seeking the advice of a psychic and a parapsychologist, who reveals that Alice had been keeping some profound secrets from her friends and family, the Palmers travel to Lake Mungo and begin unraveling the mystery of the troubled adolescent's double life. A faux-documentary shot in the style of The Blair Witch Project and Diary of the Dead, Lake Mungo proves that the mysteries of the living don't lie silent with the deceased. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

In this light romantic comedy, Daisy (Jan Adele) is an old woman living out her life on a run-down farm in the Australian outback. She has grown slovenly and lazy, rarely venturing out of bed. When Simon (Sean Scully), a young and rootless man lands on her doorstep, at first she has nothing to offer him but abuse. He endures her vituperation and shames her into taking an interest in her life for the first time since her husband Harry died. Before long, they have taken a shine to each other. These developments don't sit well with Daisy's daughter Joan (Shaunna O'Grady), who is determined to ship her off to an old-age home and fears she may be acquiring a stepfather who is younger than she is. After she finds out that Simon is on the run from the law, she triumphantly informs Daisy of this fact. To her great chagrin, this information has no effect whatsoever. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
