Some families are held together by what they say. Others are defined by what they leave in the dark. Melbourne, 1979. Terry is a young idealist on the cusp of a brilliant legal career when his world fractures. Left adrift by a sudden, devastating event, he faces a crisis that threatens to ruin his future before it even begins-until his younger sister, Rose, steps up to the plate. With a single, life-altering choice to protect them, Rose's own world will transform. Melbourne, 1996. For seventeen-year-old Lucas, survival means navigating a series of minefields at home and beyond. He is hopelessly entangled with his childhood best friend, Daniel, but they are caught in yet another volatile cycle of intense closeness and devastating, cold silences-driven by Daniel's secret shame that is tearing them apart. In their final school year, life for everyone around them seems to be reaching a breaking point, and long-buried secrets are resurfacing. There is no escaping the past, not even for Lucas, who is about to head off on a long-planned backpacking trip to celebrate the end of school with Daniel. Except they're not on speaking terms. Whether in Melbourne, Sydney, or wintry Europe, everyone in this family is going to have to face what they left in the dark to decide how to move forward into the future. Spanning two decades, Replace The Sky is a passionate, emotionally raw and richly layered LGBTQ+ family saga. Moving from the political rallies of late-70s Melbourne to the haunting beauty of a 90s European winter, it is a tender exploration of the heavy price of identity, the intoxicating freedom of escape, and the profound truth that you can come of age at any age.
