Directed by Alice Springs’ one and only Dylan River and starring Noah Taylor, Miranda Otto, Will McDonald and Sherry-Lee Watson.

The Stan Original Series Thou Shalt Not Steal is an eight-episode road series set in Central and South Australia in the 1980s. On a search for the truth behind a family secret, Robyn (Watson), a young Aboriginal delinquent, escapes from detention and reluctantly teams up with awkward teenager Gidge (McDonald). Together they flee her small central desert community on a perilous journey across the outback, finding answers and learning some hard life lessons along the way. Hot on their heels are Maxine, a sex trafficker whose taxi Robyn stole, and Gidge’s domineering father Robert, a fraudulent preacher. Strap in for a 1980s-era Australian road trip like you’ve never experienced before!

Starring Writer-director Dylan River (Mystery Road: Origin), one of Australia’s most celebrated new talents, presents a wonderfully raw, darkly comic new series. River’s talents shine brightly in this gloriously unorthodox coming-of-age journey (think End of the F***ing World meets Fargo) enhanced by Australia’s stunning Northern Territory. Freshly reunited from the Netflix hit Heartbreak High, Watson and McDonald entertain and endear in their moving and hilarious performances as two teens in the most extraordinary (and sometimes extreme) of circumstances.

THOU SHALT NOT STEAL is presented by Stan, Tourism NT and Screen Territory.
