Trial in the Outback: The Lindy Chamberlain Story explores the case that has figured in Australia's collective consciousness since 1980 when a dingo took Chamberlain's defenseless baby in a random horrific attack.

Through interviews with Chamberlain, her children, and eyewitnesses today, archival footage and broadcasts, and – for the first time – access to Chamberlain's personal archive of family stills, movies, audio recordings, and letters, the series is a compelling universal story that still resonates today.
