    Storyline

    Edit
    Marco (Flavio Parenti) is a 35-year-old ex-chef who has given up his career and any sense of hope to return to Udine in Northern Italy to nurse his ailing father. Even when offered a job at a restaurant in Melbourne, he declines using his father as the excuse. When tragedy strikes, the only glimmer of joy arrives in the form of Olivia (Maeve Dermody), a spirited Australian chasing her dream of working in design while on a family mission in Udine. Against the stunning vineyards, rugged mountains, and blue Adriatic of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, these two very different people find themselves at a crossroads that will change their lives forever.

    Not convincing therefore not engaging.
    Even though Maeve Dermody is Australian she has spent some time living and working in England and her persona came across as more English than Australian . There was not a trace of an Australian accent, she spoke without enunciating well so was difficult to understand and she played the role more in the reserved style of an English woman than an Australian who would be more relaxed in style. The owner of the di Stasio restaurant was more true to her Australian character.
