Deborah Mailman Takes No Prisoners In The Trailer For ‘Black Bitch’
The series will air on the ABC later in the year.
Deborah Mailman is a rookie senator thrown headfirst into the vile and vicious world of federal politics in the trailer for the upcoming ABC political drama Black Bitch.
The Blackfella Films series follows Mailman’s Alex Irving, an Indigenous politician recruited to the senate by an embattled Prime Minister (played by Rachel Griffiths). It seems like a good opportunity, but it turns out Canberra is… well, kind of shitty. And when Alex finds herself being used by political insiders to further their own agenda, she decides to take matters into her own hands.
The first two episodes of Black Bitch will have their world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September. The full series will air on the ABC later in the year.
