A STORY OF DEVASTING EMOTIONAL POWER THAT WILL GRIP YOU FROM BEGINNING TO END.

From a humble yet happy childhood in Italy, to moving across the water to Australia in the 1960's, then thrown into unexpected culture shock and racism, this young girl grows through constant upheavals as a woman determined.

She falls in love and marries her true sweetheart but as she faces challenge after challenge, her life becomes a roller coaster of periods of personal success and total despair, upon which the spectre of mental illness then arises.

Again and again, this woman needs to make a heartbreaking choice between her personal happiness and her duty and love for her family.

Through sheer strength and determination in holding on to her most cherished values, she eventually finds a measure of self-acceptance, peace and happiness.
