While the men are off fighting in WWII, the people who have been excluded from power suddenly find themselves running the show. Two Women's Land Army recruits from Sydney arrive in the country and undergo a heady course in race relations, rural politics, spirituality, sex, and personal growth - oh, and farming.
In 1940s Australia, the men are off fighting in WWII and Frankie finds herself in charge of her farm. She decides to enlist the help of two city dwellers to keep it running.
All hands are needed as an insect infestation threatens the apple crop; Frankie tries to secure pesticide, but runs into a series of obstacles.
The group discover that their internal baggage is as powerful as the patriarchy at blocking the road to their true selves.
The gang are faced with a profound moral issue that clashes with their attitudes, and realise they will have to let go of the things that no longer serve them to be able to survive.

The group experiences life without friction, getting a taste of what life could be like and, when it comes under threat, realising that it's worth fighting for.
As the war creeps closer, the group struggle to hold onto their collective dream. They're all forever changed by their time together and the knowledge that they're not alone.
