Description: When it comes to looking back over his life, Archie Fliess has got some understanding to do. So begins a sprawling reflection on Archie's life during the early twentieth century, starting the day the fortunes of Archie and brother Reggie change when they are taken to be the rightful owners of the property built by their grandfather in country NSW. Along their journey, they are introduced to an odd collection of family and caretakers who don't always have the best interests of the boys at heart.
