The Sapphires
Based on the true-life adventures of writer Tony Briggs' mother, The Sapphires is adapted from the successful Australian stage musical.
AFI award winner Deborah Mailman, pop sensation Jessica Mauboy and charismatic newcomers Shari Sebbens and Miranda Tapsell star as an all-girl sixties soul group who travel from Melbourne to Vietnam on a goodwill tour.
Affable Irishman Chris O'Dowd (Bridesmaids, TV's The IT Crowd) co-stars as the girl group's endearingly rag-tag manager.
"Deliver[s] a rare blend of infectiously entertaining drama and romance. An energetic feel-good triumph." - The Age
