The story

With his horse-drawn carriage and trusty dog in tow, itinerant loner Snow (Gary Sweet) spends months at a time away from home, trawling the backroads of rural Australia looking for work, during the height of the 1930s Great Depression. On his travels, he meets a variety of characters including the ‘busker' (Marcus Graham)’, ‘Ma’ (Anne Phelan) and the ‘stray’, Dancy (Jacqueline McKenzie). Snow and Dancy eventually fall in love, while struggling to make the best of hard times.
