Summary |
Based on the novel by Gwen Kelly and directed by award-winning film-maker David Stevens, Always Afternoon is a story of teenage love, set in the small coastal village of Arakoon, Australia during the Great war. At the outbreak of World War I, Franz Mueller, a handsome and talented violinist, is interned in an Australian POW camp. He and Freda, the enchanting and impetuous daughter of a local baker, fall in love. With the help of head-strong Freda, Franz escapes his imprisonment, but will this first love survive their divided loyalties as they struggle with their cultural identities and the prejudices of the local community? |
