With Camera's rolling Christian and Annie experience more than they bargained for.

Ace of Spades is based on an Aboriginal folklore story that is known throughout Nyoongar country that many Indigenous people hold to be true. It is claimed by the Yuet people to have originated in the New Norcia region, the writer/ director’s mother was a member of the stolen generation who was placed at New Norcia so it was very important to him to tell this story.
