Redfern Now Joyride
In her mid fifties, Coral (Tessa Rose), works in a food van, which sometimes brings her into contact with victims of abuse, leading her to the mistaken conclusion that her daughter's bruised face is the result of more than just an accident. When Coral is hit by a stolen car (the joyride) with Danny as a passenger, her granddaughter, Julie, arrives to look after her, but she is forced into hospital. Danny comes seeking forgiveness and falls in love with Julie.
Six powerful contemporary stories of six different families, whose lives are changed by a seemingly insignificant incident in the Sydney suburb of Redfern.
