Three girls leave their safe suburban world to spend a life-changing night in a forest on the outskirts of Melbourne, where they plan a half-serious séance to call forth bushranger Ned Kelly. A world away in times Edward Kelley - alchemist, necromancer and crystal ball ‘scryer’ for Elizabeth I’s astrologist and one-time adviser Doctor Dee - is beset by visions.
