From Academy Award® nominated director Bruce Beresford comes the comedy drama Ladies in Black, based on Madeleine St John's best-selling novel, The Women in Black.

Set in the summer of 1959, when the impact of European migration and the rise of women's liberation is about to change Australia forever, Lisa, aged sixteen, takes a holiday job at the prestigious Sydney department store, Goode's. There she meets the "ladies in black", when she is assigned to assist sales ladies Patty and Fay. 

Beguiled and influenced by Magda, the vivacious manager of the high-fashion boutique Model Gowns, Lisa is awakened to a world of possibilities. As she grows from a bookish schoolgirl into a glamorous and positive young woman, the impact they have on each other will change all their lives.

Review: Absolute Gem. Really enjoyable Australia film following the intertwinned lives for a group of women connected through working at a Sydney deparment store in 1959.  When Goodes takes on a 'casual' for the first time, the positive effect Lisa has will connect these women forever.  A rare honest and raw look into Australia culture and society from a variety of perspectives on the changing landscape of the times and what it means to be a woman. Get around this great film, you will love it.
