a family with an extraordinary history and astounding traditions,

chaotic world of the Blackwells when he relocates to Coraloo with
his socialite wife, Velveteen, and shy son, Gideon. Here Charlie
attempts to make a living as a 'picker', reselling under-priced

life under threat and his quest for simplicity seems to be
crumbling. Perhaps it's time for Charlie to have a funeral of his
own?
