Comment
A woman who designs haute couture dresses returns to her small home town in rural Australia which she was forced to leave as a small child after she was accussed of killing another child. This is a mixture of drama, romance and comedy as Kate Winslet discovers her past and attempts to bring retirbution on those who abused her. There is a very good performance from Kate Winslet as the person wanting revenge for her past, with good support from Judy Davis as her mad mother and Hugo Weaving as the policeman with an unorthodox sexuality.
