Synopsis
Snowtown (2011) is an Australian crime drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Justin Kurzel in his feature debut. The film draws on the events behind one of Australia's deadliest serial-killing cases — a discovery made when police found bodies stored in drums inside a disused bank vault in a small South Australian town.
Teenager Jamie (Lucas Pittaway) lives in a rough Adelaide suburb. His mother's new boyfriend, John Bunting (Daniel Henshall), positions himself as a protector — a man cleaning up the neighbourhood, one problem at a time. Jamie is drawn into Bunting's circle step by careful step, and by the time the full picture becomes clear, he is already too deep to walk away.
Kurzel shoots the film in a flat, stripped-back style that never reaches for dramatic effect. That restraint is exactly what makes it so hard to shake. Stream Snowtown (2011) online on iFILM.
