Singapore – The Slap, a new award-winning mini-series, will premiere exclusively on Sundance Channel on Singtel’s mio TV from 12 April.

Based on the best-selling novel by Christos Tsiolkas, the eight-part one-hour drama traces the shattering repercussions of a single event upon a group of family and friends. It is a searing and controversial portrait of middle-class life and the mores and morality that shape modern, multicultural Australia.

The mini-series is produced by Matchbox Pictures for ABC TV Australia, Screen Australia, Film Victoria and DCD Rights.
