This Is Eden

This is Eden is at once an examination of our dark past, a parody of the way we perceive it and a vital call to arms. 1839. Cascades Female Factory, Hobart Town. In a solitary cell, on the edge of survival, a ‘sleek little savage’ waits alone in the darkness. Left for dead, ten thousand miles from home, she plots escape and reveals, with biting mockery, the untold tales of her captors.
