 and it’ll have you on the edge of your couch, enthralled in its murder mystery. Keen to hear more? Here’s everything you need to know about Stan’s new Original Series before it drops. In 1994, 17-year-old Isabel Baker () was murdered. The crime sent shockwaves through the small tropical North Queensland town of Ashford and devastated the Australian South Sea Islander community. The case was never solved, and the killer was never found. 25 years later, the opening of a time capsule unearths a secret that reopens the cold case and puts Detective James Cormack () on the trail of the killer. Suspicion is cast over the entire town and fractures the harmony they have spent decades rebuilding. But can the killer actually be caught after all this time? When we say shit-hot, . The six-part mystery drama centres around star , and newcomers and . They’re joined by familiar faces in (), (), (), () and (). is one of the first Aussie TV Series to really centre around the Australian South Sea Islander community as it tells the story of Isabel Baker. A couple of months ago, I was lucky enough to visit the cast and crew on the set of Black Snow in tropical North Queensland and see how much it meant to the Australian South Sea Islander community to see themselves represented on screen. It was also pretty incredible to see how collaborative and involved the Australian South Sea Islander community was in telling this story. A lot of the main cast were Australian South Sea Islanders or could trace their heritage back to the South Sea Islands, and the wider ASSI community was invited to be a part of bigger town scenes to ensure they were represented properly. Each member of the cast and crew (including visitors like myself) also had to complete a cultural immersion session with leaders in the ASSI community before they stepped on set to ensure their culture and story were understood and respected throughout the entire process. And, without leaking spoilers, there are also certain scenes in the series that explore the traditions of the South Sea Islander people, each time these scenes were shot, leaders in the community were there to make sure their culture was portrayed correctly and respectfully. It was pretty incredible to see how much care and respect went into telling this story, and it made me even more excited to tune in. The good news is that you don’t have to wait that long to binge-watch on Stan. All six eps drop on Jan 1, and considering most of us will probs still be a little dusty from NYE, it’s perfect timing. If you aren’t already signed up to Stan, you can do that Now, all that’s left to do is add it to your watch queue.
