According to the Sun Herald:

Apart from acknowledgment of its good intentions, not very much can be said on behalf of this locally made narrative about a family of New Australians and their life in a country town. The script is deplorably slow in movement. The way is still wide open for a good Australian film- maker to search into the absorbing drama of human conflicts and hopes and doubts that is locked in the heart of every New Australian.[2]
