Full Plot Details

1968 was the year that changed the world. And for four young Aboriginal sisters from a remote mission this is the year that would change their lives forever. Around the globe, there was protest and revolution in the streets. Indigenous Australians finally secured the right to vote. There were drugs and the shock of a brutal assassination. And there was Vietnam. The sisters, Cynthia, Gail, Julie and Kay are discovered by Dave, a talent scout with a kind heart, very little rhythm but a great knowledge of soul music. Billed as Australia's answer to 'The Supremes', Dave secures the sisters their first true gig, and flies them to Vietnam to sing for the American troops. Based on a true story, THE SAPPHIRES is a triumphant celebration of youthful emotion, family and music.

Movie Reviews

Radio Times - 10/10 by Alan JonesA model feel-good movie that sparkles with heartfelt humour ...
The Mercury - 10/10 by Tim MartainAn Aussie film with real mainstream chops, not a film you watch out of patriotic obligation, but one you watch simply because it is a top-quality, enjoyable and affecting flick.
AALBC.com - 10/10 by Kam WilliamsA well-deserved tribute to four Aussie lassies who risked their lives to entertain the boys.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 9/10 by Ken HankeQuite possibly the least original movie you'll see this summer -- and one of the most enjoyable.
Film School Rejects - 9/10 by Simon GallagherHarmless, eschewing provocation in favour of a genuine entertainment factor, and preferring to tell its worthy story in terms of characters and their personal relationships.
Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Chris NashawatyThe Sapphires is a movie for your heart (and your ears and moneymaker), not your head.
Cinemalogue - 9/10 by Todd JorgensonA rousing soundtrack helps to compensate for some of the historical embellishments in this Australian crowd-pleaser.
Seven Days - 9/10 by Rick KisonakBy-the-numbers in every sense of the word, the film tracks a tried-and-true sort of triumph while featuring renditions of soul classics so bursting with energy and joy you won't care that the originality meter is leaning on empty.
The Patriot Ledger - 9/10 by Al AlexanderThe mood is so charming and the music so inspiring that you continually cut it a break.
NECN - 8/10 by Erick WeberThe most affable, innocuous outing ever set in a war zone.
