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.

Everything begins and ends at the exactly right time and place
Miranda obviously had the idea that she would never come back again. Now, from where? We’ll never know I believe the movie lacks in the characters’ story and reasons, but maybe that’s the purpose of the story. I mean, the less you know about them, the more curiosity you’ll have Aesthetically pleasing, and you finish the movie with questions and answers in your mind
