Deep Water: The Real Story (TVNZ OnDemand)
Deep Water follows the story behind a wave of murders in Sydney in the 1980s and 1990s, which targeted young homosexual men.

By shedding light on many of the deaths, which were recorded as being 'unsolved', 'suicide' or 'death by misadventure', this documentary hopes new evidence will emerge. Available to stream from Saturday.
