Mail Order Bride (1984 Australian Movie)

After an exchange of letters, a Filipino woman known as ‘Ampy’ (Charito Ortez) arrives in Australia to marry Kevin (Ray Meagher), a builder who lives in a caravan park in a small town in far-western NSW. They struggle to adjust to life together as religious and cultural differences, combined with the inherent violence, alcohol abuse and racism of the isolated community, threaten to destroy any chance of their marriage succeeding. It isn’t until Kev’s ‘best mate’ Tommo (Paul Sonkkila) bashes and rapes Ampy that Kevin eventually finds the courage to turn his back on his old life and move away to start over with Ampy in a new town. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ThrowbackAus
