England of the 1950s and 60s, a Catholic Children’s Home, and a four-year-old girl … What is life like, for a child growing up this way? Is it all doom, gloom and discipline?

Free of Welfare control, officially an adult, the Women’s Liberation Movement is riding its Second Wave, ‘sisterhood is powerful’, Germaine Greer publishes The Female Eunuch, and Helen Reddy sings, ‘I’m a Woman, hear me roar! The child, a young woman herself now, must make choices with life-changing consequences.

Soaring on the psychedelic wings of the New Age, she is swept off to the Glastonbury Festival of 1971 and whirled through the streets of London to find herself a seat on a Jet bound for Australia.
