In the early 1900s, Miranda attends a girls boarding school in Australia. One Valentine's Day, the school's typically strict headmistress treats the girls to a picnic field trip to an unusual but scenic volcanic formation called Hanging Rock.

Editor's Notes

Note

Sold out during the Criterion 24-hour flash sale in March 2026. Peter Weir's 4K on Criterion, and still one of the better transfers in the boutique catalog.
