On an ordinary Sunday in Sydney, a family's brief lapse of grip on a pram set in motion a tragedy that would claim a father and his two-year-old daughter at Carlton railway station. The father, 40, leapt onto the tracks in an act of pure parental instinct, attempting to save both his twin daughters from an approaching train — succeeding for one, and losing his life alongside the other. What remains is a mother's grief, a surviving child, and the ancient, unanswerable weight of a moment that could not be undone.
