Synopsis
Gail, Cynthia, Julie and Kay are sexy, black, young and talented – and they’ve never set foot outside Australia. Until, in the chaos of 1968, they’re plucked from the obscurity of a remote Aboriginal mission, branded as Australia’s answer to The Supremes, and – grasping the chance of a lifetime – dropped into the jungles of Vietnam to entertain the troops. Inspired by the hit stage-play of the same name. (Source: Screen Australia https://www.screenaustralia.gov.au/the-screen-guide/t/the-sapphires-2012/21553?stxt=Rake)
