Character
1830s Australia. A penal settlement in Queensland, Moreton Bay. The commandant is cruel. 25, 50, 100, 200 lashes are standard. His wife's younger sister arrives and struggles with the brutality. Times are changing. I enjoyed the women's perspective. So lucky not to live in them times, man or woman!
