The Screen Guide

In 1969, the country was prosperous and the original A BIG COUNTRY program examined the Country Women's Association’s attempts to stay relevant in the context of the fast changing and increasingly feminist late '60s. The group was in rapid decline and leaders of the CWA claimed that the 'members were not moving with the times' and that they needed to change their ways or risk fading away forever. This film takes a look at the CWA in the present day as they attempt to loosen the shackles of tradition and bring in young blood, while staying true to their original objectives.
