Australian Cinema: Freedom

on BBC Two England

continues a major season of films new to television.
Tonight starring Jon Blake, Candy Raymond

Ron Matheson is 22 years old, handsome and mad about cars. He is also out of work and finds that life in the 80s is increasingly divided between the haves and have nots. How is Ron to get the car of his dreams and the money and freedom to enjoy it? The answer is as clear as the keys in the gleaming Porsche... This vivid chase movie combines excitement with a social critique of the 80s.

(First showing on British television)
