An unconventional partnership takes shape inside a ruthless Australian newsroom in 1986, where a star newsreader and an ambitious bisexual reporter are thrown together as major events begin reshaping both the country and their careers. Anna Torv is the embattled anchor at the center of the broadcast, while Sam Reid’s young reporter is eager to move up in a workplace driven by image, pressure, and breaking news. Around them, the daily scramble of live television turns professional ambition and private strain into part of the same story.
