It’s 1940s Australia. As you probably know, there’s a ruddy massive war on, so a lot of the men are away for a bit. This is unsettling. But also, pretty exciting for anyone who isn’t a man. Frankie is left in charge of her farm after her husband is sent to war. She enlists Gwen and Esther from the women’s land army to join herself, local Indigenous domestic Kathleen, and certified coward Robert. It’s about five individuals who find each other, and for a glorious moment in time, sample a life tinged with promise and hope and acceptance. And once they taste it, it’s impossible to go back.
