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?

Written by Emily Steel, the writer of Rocket Town and winner of the Adelaide Fringe 2011 inSPACE:development award.

Directed by Nescha Jelk, winner of the 2011 Helpmann Academy Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Award.

Featuring Matthew Gregan, Holly Myers and Rory Walker
