Tidelands (Season 1)

Tidelands (2018) is an Australian supernatural drama you can watch online on iFILM. In the remote fishing town of Orphelin Bay, half-human, half-Siren outcasts have hidden in plain sight for generations.

Ex-convict Cal McTeer comes back to the place that branded her a smuggler's daughter, and her return cracks open a long silence around murder and drugs. Charlotte Best plays Cal with a hard edge; Marco Pigossi is the half-Siren Dylan caught between two worlds, and Elsa Pataky rules as Adrielle, the cold matriarch of the Tidelanders.

This was Netflix's first original series shot in Australia — a single season of eight episodes from director Toa Fraser. The show welds salt-stained crime to coastal myth, and it works best when you can't tell greed from the pull of the sea. Stream Tidelands online on iFILM.
