Rueben's Ramblings

On March 18, the Sundance Channel 7-part mini-series Top of the Lake will debut its first two-hours at 9 PM.

This mystery revolves around the disappearance of Tui, a pregnant 12-year-old. Investigative detective Robin Griffin (Elizabeth Moss from Mad Men) must lose herself in order to find the missing girl. During the investigation, she collides with Matt Mitcham (Peter Mullan from War Horse), Tui’s father, a local drug lord, and G.J (Holly Hunter from Saving Grace), a guru at a local women’s camp. As the case unfolds, in a paradise where honest work is hard to find, Robin will find that her limits are tested, sending her on a journey of self-discovery.

The cast also includes David Wenham (Lord of the Rings), Jay Ryan (Beauty And the Beast) and Lucy Lawless (Spartacus: Vengeance).

Here is a trailer for Top of the Lake.
