Haunted by the disappearance of her twin brother in Hong Kong, photographer Anna Frasier travels home to Sydney. Beginning a photographic study of fossilised ammonites she meets Seth LaMarque, a blind palaeontologist, and his sister Rachel.
As Anna's work progresses she finds herself more and more involved in Seth's and Rachel's lives. But even as she is drawn into their world, her brother's absence binds her to a past she can neither escape nor resolve until she returns to Hong Kong to find him.
Set just over a decade from now, 'The Deep Field' evokes a world much like the present, yet subtly and unsettlingly different. At once steely and compassionate, it weaves elements of photography, philosophy and science together into a meditation on love, time and loss.
