The story

What Is A Girl in Australia About?

The premise of A Girl in Australia without spoilers.

An old‑fashioned Italian, steeped in the strict moral code of the 1930s‑40s, travels to 1960s‑70s Australia where women enjoy far greater freedom. He must navigate the clash of his traditional expectations with the country’s liberated, modern society as he searches for a suitable wife.
