Sphere Abacus (SA) has secured worldwide distribution rights to Easy Tiger’s thriller series "Treasure & Dirt", produced for the ABC in association with the BBC and the South Australian Film Corporation.

Based on the novel by Chris Hammer, bestselling author of "Scrublands", "Treasure & Dirt" (6x1hora) stars Michael Dorman ("Territory"), Liv Hewson ("Yellowjackets), Sarah Peirse ("The Twelve: Cape Rock Killer") and Thomas M. Wright ("Wolfram") and is sets in a dying opal town in the middle of the desert, where law and order are little more than myths. Thieves raid the mines, zealots preach salvation to the lost, and billionaire magnates play god.

Jonathan Ford, Managing Director, SA comments “We are delighted to acquire this gripping thriller from the producers of 'Scrublands' and 'Scrublands Silver', both high-end series which have proven incredibly popular around the world. We’re sure this new series, which boasts an impeccable cast along with a dark and mysterious narrative, will be another international hit.”
