Dreamtime For Alice

Synopsis:
Forty-three-year-old book editor alice flees a failed marriage and suburban despair in America and finds herself unintentionally stranded in the Australian outback. armed with only sunscreen, a Swiss army knife, and a caustic attitude, she is initially breezy. However she grows increasingly desperate and watches both self-assurance and her very worldview slip away as she begins to question not only the possibility of rescue, but the deeper meaning of her life. By finally owning up to her weaknesses and asking for grace, she is able to attain a certain transcendence. . .but at a cost.
