Murder Files Unsealed

Black Snow Review – Australian Murder Mystery


Listen Later

This analysis of the Australian crime drama Black Snow highlights its unique blend of a cold-case murder mystery set in North Queensland with a focus on the history and experiences of the Australian South Sea Islander community. The series utilizes dual timelines (1994 and 2019) and a time capsule as a central premise to investigate the death of teenager Isabel Baker, incorporating themes of blackbirding and systemic racism. While praised for its cultural authenticity, atmospheric setting, and strong early episodes, the review notes that the show's pacing and narrative momentum falters in its later half. Despite some criticisms, the series is considered a significant addition to Australian television for its social consciousness and ability to bring overlooked history to light.
