Australian coming-of-age drama, written and directed by Cate Shortland. Heidi (Abbie Cornish) is a young girl living with her single mother and exploring her own burgeoning sexuality. When she is thrown out by her mother, she travels to the ski resort of Lake Jindabyne to look up a former boyfriend, whom she is upset to find is no longer interested in her. Stuck by herself in the resort, Heidi uses her body to befriend a diverse cross section of the community, and begins an intense relationship with the morose Joe (Sam Worthington) that sends each of their ideas about sexuality and the future spiralling out of control.
