My crush on that country down under began when I first visited Sydney when I was about 12. The shores, the amazing opera house, and the great people.

Then the movies. I saw Jindabyne yesterday at the San Francisco International Film Festival. Based on the short story So much water, so close to home. Even though it was rather disjointed, it spoke so much of the country, the culture. The isolation perhaps? And the disconnection among the immigrants and the fishes out of water.
