In the early 1900s, Miranda attends a girls boarding school in Australia. One Valentine's Day, the school's typically strict headmistress treats the girls to a picnic field trip to an unusual but scenic volcanic formation called Hanging Rock. Despite rules against it, Miranda and several other girls venture off. It's not until the end of the day that the faculty realizes the girls and one of the teachers have disappeared mysteriously.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
One of the most hauntingly beautiful mysteries ever created on film.
– Peter Stack,
San Francisco Chronicle,
1 Jan 2000
fresh:
A film of haunting mystery and buried sexual hysteria.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
1 Jan 2000
fresh:
The story provides Mr. Weir with material for a kind of Australian horror-romance that recalls Nathaniel Hawthorne's preoccupation with the spiritual and moral heritage of his own New England landscape.
– Vincent Canby,
New York Times,
15 Jan 2005
fresh:
This horrific tale is told with marvelous shadowy indirection and delicate lyricism.
