Bushfire Moon - An Unforgettable, Inspiring Story
by chakotay-707702025-01-02
10/10

"Even after more than three decades, Bushfire Moon is among my all-time favourite films....still !! It is THAT good... At the time, movies were available for rental as VHS tapes. Who would imagine - when I picked up "Bushfire Moon" from the shelf - that this family.saga would imprint itself in my heart...forever ? This is a rare movie, a hidden gem that many viewers have never even heard of, let alone watched. I have been one of those lucky enough to have stumbled on this uplifting Christmas tale about an Australian family down on its luck, facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles...."
