The Cascades

Synopsis

In the 1830s, Winnifred ‘Freddie’ Sheridan finds herself convicted to serve a sentence at the ‘Cascades Female Factory’ in Tasmania. There she meets the charismatic Ellen Scott, a female convict who has created a joyful counter-culture within the misery of 'The Cascades' - a rebel faction known as the ‘Flash Mob’. Together, the two women will grow the ‘Flash Mob’ from an underground movement into a prison-wide feminist phenomenon that could threaten the very existence of ‘The Cascades’.
