Two flawed families, each scarred by catastrophe, find a home for their hearts in this acclaimed Australian miniseries. Adapted by Tim Winton from his award-winning novel, set around Perth from 1943-63, it's gripping, poignant, and gorgeous. The Lambs are hardworking and God-fearing, the Pickles are luckless and derelict, yet they find common ground beneath the same roof. Exquisitely filmed with an outstanding ensemble cast led by Kerry Fox (An Angel at My Table), Cloudstreet is "a triumph" - Australian. 6 hrs plus bonus, 3 DVDs, SDH. Mature audiences.
