Tree Palace

Living on the outskirts of society, Shane, Moira, Midge, and young Zara and Rory are searching for shelter. When they find an abandoned bush shack, things start looking up. But fifteen year old Zara has a newborn baby that she's desperate to ignore and before long Shane is in trouble with the police. A moving and lyrical meditation on the meaning of family, for fans of John Steinbeck.
