CGiii Comment

A wistful story of individuality and resilience, set in in the Australian town of Euroa during the summer of 1987. Ten-year-old tomboy Robbie suffers from occasional epileptic seizures that make her feel like a freak. When she discovers a discarded boys suit in her brothers' closet, she feels she may have found a new identity. With her newfound confidence she spends the summer helping out at her dad's gas station. But when her suit fails her, a crisis looms.
