Spaces Between

This compelling story opens at the height of the 1990s mining boom as Laura moves to Perth to work for a mining company. When she discovers her father's precious old camera, she embarks on a photographic expedition. The creativity she experiences through the camera is intoxicating and she falls under the spell of the Western Australian bush and the photographer Frank. Her love for him is shattered when he cruelly abandons her after discovering she works for the company he believes is exploiting the land and the Aboriginal people living on it. Laura has to find her path through pain and grief and the excitement and seduction of the heady days of greed, corruption, deceit and misogyny. Her relationships with her charming yet unpredictable boss and with the respectful, trustworthy head of the mine site, force Laura to find the strength to dramatically take a stand. Can the redemptive power of love support her to risk her career for the Aboriginal people she has come to respect and the men she cares for?
