Celia (1989)
Directed by Ann Turner
Overview
In 1950s Australia, young Celia is growing up with a sense of isolation and mistrust of the world that surrounds her. Her mother and father won’t let her play with the kids next door because their parents are communists. Then her pet bunny is taken away because of rabbit overpopulation. And, more traumatizing yet, when her grandmother dies, she’s the one to discover the corpse. To cope, she retreats into elaborate fantasies.
