About the film:

Narrated by Margot Robbie and sharing the often secret lives of an eclectic group of women across Australia, Under Cover shines a light on the devastating reality that women over 50 are the fastest growing cohort experiencing homelessness in the country. Their moving but optimistic portraits reveal the struggles these women face, and lay bare the flaws in our society, as well as our economic fragility in the modern world.
