A single mother and her children fall into homelessness. A wildlife veterinarian stands against the crashing waves of extinction. And a young man, scarred by the loss of his father, is swept up by the violent tides of the world around him. Wildlife conservation and biodiversity clash with Australia's housing crisis in this exploration of juxtaposed ethics and man's ubiquitous war with the Earth and with himself. And at the centre of it all, the koalas of Queensland are dying out.
