Amidst the dust & shadows of a Central Otago woolshed, a grumpy old man is obliged to listen to a humorous tale from a meddlesome stranger.
Old stories Never Die
On a dusty day in Central Otago, a man in his 80s enters his workshop. His mission? To fix a broken kitchen appliance.
His task is interrupted by the arrival of a chatty stranger and an irksome rooster.
After several attempts to get rid of distractions the old man is faced to listen to the tales of his visitor, including the saga of an obstinate stump.
Eventually, it becomes clear that the stranger may not be so strange. And the story may have more meaning than first meets the ear.
