Following the death of her daughter in an Australian hostel, Rosie Ayliffe travels to Australia and discovers that thousands of travellers are at risk of exploitation at the hands of farmers. The 88-day farm work scheme, a method of attaining a second-year visa, is a totally unregulated process where the workers are entirely at the behest of the farmers. "They have to be here for a certain time and then they get the paperwork. But some of the farmers want to have sex with the girls so that they get their paperwork", Home Hill resident John White explains to Rosie.

"He kind of went down a back sort of side road and he's pulled over and he tried to kind of come at me", tells Chelsey, a young backpacker and victim of sexual assault. "I crossed my legs as hard as I could, I had my arms covering me. He was reaching to kind of undo his pants." She managed to fight off the attacker. She was told by the police there was nothing they could do, as it was a case of her word against his. He went on to attack again.

Tom Jackson, who died trying to save Mia Ayliffe-Chung, was forced to stay in the hostel in Home Hill until he found work. "So that he couldn't scarper, he had his passport confiscated along with his laptop", says Les Jackson, Tom's father. He had built up rental debt, having travelled to Home Hill after being promised farm work by the hostel. "There's hostels that are advertising work when perhaps there's not work there and they're just filling up their hostel, keeping the beds occupied", says Alison Rahill of the Salvation Army, "and there's actually nothing stopping them doing that."

Rosie is fighting to regulate the system, and provide support for the young backpackers travelling to Australia full of hope. But it is an uphill battle. Whilst acknowledging the problems with the scheme, the farmers rely on it. "Backpacker labour to our industry, we wouldn't survive without it", confesses farmer Allan Mahoney. "It's a necessary evil. We need the labour force and it's that simple."
