Play Synopsis

For Neil, the South Australian coastal town of Whyalla is a place of hidden beauty. Just a short drive from his caravan park, a few metres under the water, are hundreds of thousands of cuttlefish, Sepia apama, in their natural breeding ground.

But now things are changing. The cuttlefish are going missing; and Neil is finding his family is further away than ever.

Can Whyalla still be all he thought it could be?
