Rhae-Kye Waites

Debut film from Australian writer/director Imogen Thomas. Nine-year-old Gem (newcomer Rhae-Kye Waites) forms a bond with a wild emu in the remote town of Brewarrina NSW, as she tries to cope with her beleaguered father, a naïve social worker, and her own painful grief in the aftermath of her mother's sudden death.
