'Lindy Chamberlain’s story has figured in Australia’s collective conscious since 1980, when a wild dog took her defenseless baby in a random horrific attack. But it quickly became much more than that. The intrigue of the mostly unknown and untamed outback, of parents – particularly mothers - not behaving to conventional expectations; ruthless media, self-serving politicians and cowboy police, and the “trial of the century” all combine to make this a universal story that still resonates today.'
