The Epic Australian Mini-series! Adapted from Catherine Gaskins best-selling novel. 3 DVD Set. Over 4 hours of compelling viewing! In the tradition of A Town Like Alice, this classic Oz miniseries is the story of a poor, impish convict girl determined to escape a life of depravation and join the ranks of the colonial gentry. From the hold of a prison ship bound for Sydney, Sara is released to become a maid. Stripped of her rags, the now luminous Sara is coveted by a ships officer, Andrew Macleay, whom she soon marries, much to the disapproval of the colonial establishment. Saras fiercely independent spirit and driving ambition are underrated, however, and she soon gains acceptance among the elite. But when tragedy strikes she is again ostracized and must fight a courageous battle for her freedom and status. Stars Harold Hopkins (Dons Party, The Club) and Juliet Jordan.
