On St Valentine’s Day 1900, three schoolgirls from an exclusive English-style boarding school go missing, along with a teacher, at Hanging Rock, in central Victoria.

In this clip, Michael Fitzhubert (Dominic Guard) has spent the night on Hanging Rock, looking for clues. When his servant Albert (John Jarratt) finds him the next day, he is exhausted and unable to speak. As he’s stretchered off the mountain, he hands Albert a tiny piece of a girl’s dress. Albert returns to the spot and finds missing schoolgirl Irma (Karen Robson).
