A Shepherdstown Film Society Selection

Ladies in Black (2018)

Ladies in Black is a warm and beguiling comedy-drama set in a grand Sydney department store during the summer of 1959. When sixteen-year-old Lisa lands a holiday job on the sales floor, she is drawn into the world of the "ladies in black" — a spirited ensemble of women navigating ambition, friendship, and the social upheavals of a country on the cusp of change.

Directed by Bruce Beresford, based on the beloved novel The Women in Black by Madeleine St John.
