The Eye of the Storm


The Eye of the Storm
In the Sydney suburb of Centennial Park, two nurses, a housekeeper and a solicitor attend to an old woman as her expatriate son and daughter convene at her deathbed. In dying, as in living, the old lady remains a powerful force on those who surround her. Based on the novel by Nobel Prize winner Patrick White, The Eye of the Storm is a savage exploration of family relationships, and the sharp undercurrents of love and hate, comedy and tragedy, which define them.
