| Description | The legend that is Jean Batten is fascinating and powerful. Cool, glamorous and utterly fearless, the great aviatrix's flight from England to New Zealand in a single engine plane made of wood and fabric, navigating with just a compass and a watch, is one to the extraordinary feats of the last century. we meet Jean in 1936 as she waits for clear weather. Stuck in the luxury of the Hotel Australia, desperate to carry on her flight, Jean must handle the pressure, fear, uncertainties and prejudices that lie ahead. | ||||||||||
