Journey of a story is a unique, New Zealand feature film. Set in the present and also the decade around World War II, it follows the story of soldier William Brown and his struggle to cope in an environment very different from the one he left behind. The film is a tribute to the filmmaker's father and grandfather.

Our most recent event, Forties Fun at Ferndale, went off without a hitch. An enthusiastic group of about 60 filled the historic Ferndale house, many in period dress, to enjoy delicious treats (some courtesy of Icing on the Cake in Ponsonby) and sample a range of Bell teas, while listening to cracking live entertainment courtesy of June, Barry and Angela.

The feedback was extremely positive; with any luck we will be able to run a similar event in the future.
