Harp In The South (DVD, 1987).
Welcome to 12 ½ Plymouth Street, in Sydneys
Surry Hills. This is the home of the Aussie Irish
Catholic family, The Darcys as lovingly told by Award-
winning author Ruth Park. In The Harp in the South
and Poor Man's Orange, Park tells of the trials and
tribulations of growing up in a Sydney slum in the
years immediately following the Second World War.
In THE HARP IN THE SOUTH we first meet The Darcys
a poor, working class family of tough Irish stock
- Mumma (Anne Phelan), dad Hughie (Martyn
Sanderson), Roie (Anna Hruby), Grandma Kilker
(Gwen Plumb) and younger daughter Dolour (Kaarin
Fairfax), through whose eyes we hear their story.
A story that centres on the bittersweet first and last
loves of Roie, who becomes a woman too quickly
living among the tenement houses, razor gangs,
brothels and sly-grog shops of inner city Surry Hills.
The Darcy family's story is continued on
the companion DVD " Poor Man's Orange"
