In the unforgiving wilderness of colonial Tasmania in 1822, a group of Irish and English convicts embark on a desperate bid for survival after escaping from the brutal Macquarie Harbour penal settlement. Their initial bravado quickly gives way to hunger, despair, and a shocking descent into cannibalism as they struggle to stay alive against all odds. Based on a true story, "Van Diemen's Land" is a heart-stopping tale of survival, murder, and the unforgiving beauty of Australia's most notorious penal settlement.
