There’s no doubt that Australian drama is having a moment, a sentiment that’s supported by the exciting upcoming series by a Big Little Lies producer called The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart.
Adapted from Holly Ringland’s international best-selling book of the same name, the show follows a young girl, Alice Hart (Alycia Debnam-Carey), whose violent childhood casts a dark shadow over her adult life.
Bruna Papandrea is the producer behind BLL and the parallels between the hit series and The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart are blindingly obvious in the newly-released trailer.
From the carefully scattered breadcrumbs used for visual storytelling and highly skilled cinematography, the new Aussie drama has the high-production feel of an Emmy Award-winning production.
What is The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart about?
The seven-part series is based around a girl who lost her parents in an unexplained fire at just nine years old. Alice moves in with her grandmother on Thornfield flower farm, where she slowly uncovers secrets about her family’s past that are linked to the deadly fire.
Who’s in the cast?
As previously mentioned, Debnam-Carey plays the role of Alice Hart and she is joined by BAFTA- and Golden Globe-winning actress Sigourney Weaver in the role of Alice’s grandmother, June Hart.
Aussie Leah Purcell plays Twig, Frankie Adams plays Candy, Asher Keddie plays Sally Morgan and Sebastian Zurita plays Dylan.

The series will drop on Prime Video on August 4, with new episodes released weekly until the series finale on September 1.
