Drought, falling wool prices and a violent storm force 11-year-old Matilda and her family to leave their farm for the city. Struggling to adjust, Matilda finds solace in a Vietnamese refugee who empathises with her loss.
The discussion that accompanies this film will encourage critical thinking about how Australia and Australians are portrayed on screen by exploring landscapes, character and stereotypes, along with themes around relationships, cultural difference and hardship.
