The White Woman

A chilling, mysterious story about a European woman rumoured to have been held captive by the Kurnai People of Gippsland in the 1840s after surviving a shipwreck, as told by a member of the search parties, many years after the event. As he speaks, it becomes apparent that the 'truth' surrounding these searches, supposedly taken out in 'in defence of virtue' and 'civilised' values, is as elusive as the white woman herself.
