Under the Frangipani

With both Church and State institutions worldwide rocked with allegations of pedophilia, “Under the Frangipani” is a psychological drama about a man who must choose between forgiveness and retribution when he saves the life of the man who sexually abused him as a child.
It is a story of how people choose different pathways to deal with their sexual abuse, and the process by which those rawest of memories, when re-awakened, can be laid to rest. More than a crisis of “Faith”, it is a crisis of wanting to “Live”. It is a story of trust when there is no-one to trust; a story of forgiveness when there is only hate in your heart. It is a story that will shock, set in the remote Kimberley region of Australia’s Northwest, where Nature can be as cruel as Man. And as redeeming. It is a story of what can be resurrected when innocence is lost.
