| Summary |
Fighting Season is a complex, character-driven drama about Australian soldiers, returned from Afghanistan. What they bring home and what of themselves they leave behind, and the secrets that must remain hidden. This is a story about the invisible men and women who fight for our country. It’s an explosive exploration of a masculine world, unpicking the mythology surrounding “The Diggers” and presenting the reality of being a modern soldier in Australia. Running throughout is a mystery regarding a potential cover-up while on duty, providing a spine to the series. How do men who are trained to kill, who live a high-adrenaline existence, transition from being killers to husbands and fathers? |
