Join us to celebrate the launch of Anne Vines Flight.

Flight is set in Melbourne in 1942. It looks at society here in wartime – living with the threat of a Japanese invasion and the reality of an American mini-invasion.

In 1942, American servicemen appear on the streets of Melbourne. Though Australians enjoy American films and music, some Melburnians find it confronting to meet real Americans, even though the Yanks have come to protect Australia from a feared Japanese invasion.

Free, but bookings are essential.
