Australia

On a summer's afternoon, shadows cast by the ancient red gums of the Oxley Flats near Glenrowan unfailingly creep across the parched earth: inevitably those shadows will diffuse into night. And as each year inexorably sheds its seasons, regrettably many worthy historical events will become vague and are thus fated to be lost forever. But not always! What then are the odds that a chance meeting of like souls in 1958 would result in the resurrection of hidden accounts of a mother and her son, whose amazing lives challenge the legend of Australia's most iconic bushranger? Ned Kelly's Son is a romantic historical adventure. You will fall in love with Orla O'Meara as she travels from her home in Ireland to the land where she comes to make her home. She will influence history by leaving her greatest gift - a son - and will challenge you to think beyond present records.
