Deep Water: The Real Story

Sun, October 16, 2016

Directed by Amanda Blue, Deep Water: The Real Story is a 90 minute feature presenting first-hand accounts of Sydney's gay hate killings in the 1980s and 1990s.

This documentary unravels the stories of a society in the grips of homophobia as gangs stalked vulnerable victims on the coastline cliffs, brutal gay bashings were carried out, and lives were ended on the rocks below.

Many of those involved at the time, including police, advisors, victims and families of those murdered speak out on the crimes of the past in the hope that new evidence will rise to the surface in the pursuit of peace for the dead and justice for their loved ones.
