World War II is over. Young men are returning home and everything has changed.

It’s 1945, Roo and Barney are back in Melbourne, only this time, rather than the heat of cane plantations, it’s the fury of the battlefield from which they return. 

World War II has shaped Australia’s sense of place in the world, forever changing the young men fighting in it and the women working and waiting back home.

When a German-Jewish refugee enters the picture, Australia’s ongoing, complicated relationship to migration comes to the fore.

With middle-age upon them, the characters must grapple with adulthood, responsibility and a winter of discontent.
