The year is 1989. The Wall is about to come down, Phil Collins is bothering the charts, and thanks to Crocodile Dundee the world is in the midst of a short-lived infatuation with Australian culture. The same can't be said for Simeone Cooper, a fabulously wealthy London housewife who'd rather forget her antipodean adolescence. However, when fate brings her and her two teenagers back to her hometown, Simeone must revisit the past and finally face up to the friends and family she left behind, and only ever knew her as "Sammy".
