As children, Sandy, Ruby, Shirley, Jimmy, and Anne were all stolen from their families and put in government homes.

Sandy is a traveller, thinker and storyteller whose early experiences make him feel he never really belongs anywhere.

Ruby is a victim of abuse who turns the poor treatment she’s received in on herself.

Anne is adopted into a wealthy family and is largely ambivalent about her Aboriginal heritage until she begins to feel a longing for ‘going back’.

Shirley is a stolen child who goes on to watch her own children be taken from her. There is nothing she can do to stop it.

Jimmy is a mischievous boy, turned sullen, angry man with just one ray of hope.

Each of them is forever changed by what happened to them. The result of all that has come before. They will never stop looking for that special place. Home.
