The Turning on ABC1

Those who missed Robert Connolly’s adaptation of Tim Winton’s The Turning at the cinema are in for a treat this Sunday night… and you don’t even have to leave you home.

ABC1 will be screening the omnibus on Sunday, 23rd February at 9.40.

Seventeen talented Australian directors from diverse artistic disciplines each create a chapter of the hauntingly beautiful novel by multi award-winning author Tim Winton. The linking and overlapping stories explore the extraordinary turning points in ordinary people’s lives in a stunning portrait of a small coastal community. As characters face second thoughts and regret, relationships irretrievably alter, resolves are made or broken, and lives change direction forever. This watershed film reinterprets and re-imagines the work for the screen.
