Ahhh EXCELLENT! Thank you, Jon!
Great Australian feature film of 80s era. Both moving and poignant performances from Judy Davis and Claudia Karvan.
A hidden gem. Fine acting and a good story line. 4/5
It seems odd for a movie in Australia to not have loads of sunshine and instead be very overcast. Initially I presumed it was in New Zealand.
