To me the ridges on that mountain look like the wrinkles on a green velvet blanket.   Like each peak, each wrinkle is one day in your life.   And if you could just tug it a little, you’d be able to smooth it all out.

To the father and two children of this grieving family, the circus seems a world of magic and escape, but to a beguiling circus star who has spent her entire life travelling in a dusty caravan, a family seems to be a world of stability and love.


In the summer of 1949, in drought-striken Flinders Ranges, these two worlds collide.  A story of new beginnings, unlikely friendships and the power of love.
