I just saw the movie “somersault”. Try to see it!!!! I added a link to the site and a trailer…. Years ago a was a big fan of the, also Australian, moviemaker Paul Cox. In his film ‘man of flowers‘ (1983) he uses also very poetical images, like trees in front of the sun, or leaves in the wind… Gueass I’m the poetical type…
After making a misjudged advance towards her mother’s boyfriend, 16-year-old Heidi flees her home for the small Australian ski town of Jindabyne. With little money or practical experience, she accepts a job at a petrol station and finds lodging with Irene. When she falls for Joe, the son of a wealthy local farmer, her self-destructive tendencies re-surface.
