Summer Coda

Having grown up with her mother in Nevada, Heidi (Rachael Taylor) hasn’t spoken to her father since she was seven. She returns to Australia as a young woman seeking closure, and her melancholic violin score catches the attention of handsome orange picker Michael (Alex Dimitriades), who offers her a ride. Both are initially guarded, but an unexpected connection soon blossoms at Michael’s orange grove. Co-starring Susie Porter, Jacki Weaver, Nathan Phillips, Angus Sampson and Cassandra Magrath, Richard Gray’s romantic drama is an Australian film with a unique setting - the stunning orange groves of sun-baked Mildura against the majestic Murray River backdrop.
