Silver Wattle is 'about two exceptional sisters, set in the Australian film world of the 1920s.
'In fear for their lives after the sudden death of their mother, Adela and Klara must flee Prague to find refuge with their uncle in Australia. There, Adela becomes a film director at a time when the local industry is starting to feel the competition from Hollywood.
