Irrespective whether you love or dislike this Aus film, what fiction or even non-fiction
books (that don't necessarily have to have an Australian setting, but it's fine if it does)
you've read and greatly admire (with similar, or even more interesting themes and characters
in your view) would you love seeing get film adapted and please elaborate on what the
story is about, who the author is and why you greatly admire it.
