In August 1980, Pastor Michael Chamberlain takes his wife Lindy and their three children on a camping holiday in Uluru, Australia. Their nine-month-old baby Azaria is taken from the tent by a dingo. The rumor mill quickly starts to spin, especially when investigations show that a human was also involved in the disappearance, as forensic evidence suggests that Azaria's throat was slit. Lindy and Michael must appear in court for murder. It is the beginning of one of the greatest miscarriages of justice ever.
