This delightful film set in the 2nd World War is based on a true story. While it was made in 1998 it wasn't released into Australian cinemas until 2000.  Why it was left this long will always be a mystery to me.

Australian films, of late, have been fairly well received comedies, and this was a blessed diversion from froth and bubble to a serious but light film. It manages to capture the oppressive beauty and harshness of the Australian outback without jamming it down your throat and takes its time in telling the story, instead of rushing - which is, I feel, a typical Australian story telling style.

Outstanding performances from leads Lisa Hensley and Steve Bastoni whose characters sizzle with sexual tension.

Well worth seeking out!
