A character drama set in 1969 Kings Cross, the time and place Australia came of age and the new generation broke all the rules. It was the Summer of Love. Mick Jagger was in town, Australia was glued to the telecast of the moon landing, and American sailors clashed on the street with anti-Vietnam war protesters. Joan Millar, a 28-year-old maverick midwife, returns to Australia from London and meets five young pregnant women whose choices for their babies and their own lives exemplify the radical changes at the heart of the cultural and sexual revolution. Their lives intersect between a maternity hospital, a home for unwed mothers, and the wild streets of Darlinghurst.
