Very depressing at the beginning. Brightens up somewhat then, but still isn't all sweetness and light.
I enjoyed when scenes were in Melbourne suburbs I've been in, though the images in my head were slightly confused - a 19th century girl walking in St Kilda alongside the rollerbladers, or shopping for 19th century goods on a busy street with a multiplex cinema. My images of Ballarat were a bit more realistic - I've been to the historical park there.

Thanks nut, what a surprise! Thank you so much for the little rubbers :)
