However, when a women is brutally murdered during curfew hours and her body left on the steps of the Women’s Safety Centre, veteran police officer Pamela Green (Parish) launches an investigation.
Although Pamela believes the killer is a man, her theory is rejected given the strict curfew system that was put in place over three years ago.
The official logline continues: "Determined to prove a man committed this murder, Pamela’s investigation threatens to bring The Women’s Safety Act crashing down… people in high places are determined to make the curfew a success and will do all it takes to prevent Pamela from discovering the truth."
Gill stars alongside Parish as Sarah, a tagging centre employee who is at the heart of the investigation, while Brazier plays a schoolboy named James, who is vocal in his opposition to the curfew.
