Top of the Lake: China Girl

The Emmy and Golden Globe-winning crime series from writer and director Jane Campion returns.

Five years after the shocking events that rocked her hometown in New Zealand, Detective Robin Griffin (Elisabeth Moss) has returned to Sydney and is trying to rebuild her life.

When the unidentified body of an Asian girl washes up on Bondi Beach, there appears to be little hope of finding the killer, until Robin realises 'China Girl' didn't die alone.

Meanwhile, haunted by disturbing dreams of the baby girl she gave up years ago, Robin reaches out to the family of her now teenage daughter. Like her birth mother, Mary is passionate and stubborn. And she's deep in the throes of a romantic attachment to a dangerously charismatic older man.

Overwhelmed by a mother's love, Robin discovers the anguish of trying to help someone who doesn't want to be helped.

The case will take her into the city's criminal underbelly, and closer than she could have imagined to the secrets of her own heart.

Lookout for Nicole Kidman in this... she delivers her best Ever Performance. She's gotten so much acclaim for Big Little Lies but this show is what she deserves the most accolades for.
