Synopsis: | Set in rural New Zealand in the 1950s, childless couple Evelyn and Jimmy Davis live on a farm in the middle of nowhere. Times are tough. Financially stretched, they agree to foster a pregnant unwed teenager, who has been shipped 'up north' to await the birth of her unplanned baby. Evie and Jimmy are initially judgmental, but Maggie proves to be a welcome breath of fresh air in their trying lives. They couldn't be more different: the Davises are people of the land - hardworking, set in their ways - while townie Maggie is vivacious and curious about the world. However, they soon discover they have more in common than just a love of dancing. They are each social outcasts in their own way, and they all harbour secrets and shattered dreams. As the baby grows, the claustrophobic isolation paired with the community's crippling conformity gradually leads them all into temptation that will change their lives forever. | |||||
