The Noble Thing
(What doesn’t cost anything, everyone wants it, and yet it...)
What doesn’t cost anything, everyone wants it, and yet it is the hardest thing to find? Successful British caterer (Elegant Tastes), Maggie Stewart, has everything except love, but she is attracted to the wrong men. After yet another failed relationship, the quest for the missing ingredient in her life takes her from her London home to Lanzarote in the Canary Islands off the coast of North Africa where an encounter leads to more than she could have ever imagined.

Young Jiffo, The Australian Featherweight
(Much more than a boxing story, we witness the coming into...)
Much more than a boxing story, we witness the coming into manhood of Jiffo, an illiterate street brawling slum hoodlum as Tom Riley, the retired heavyweight champion of Australia, invites him to join his boxing academy. Through the sport, Jiffo learns skill, character and courage, leading him to rise out of the no-hope existence in Sydney in 1900.

The Australian Featherweight
(Life in The Rocks area of Sydney, Australia in the late 1...)
Life in The Rocks area of Sydney, Australia in the late 1800's is threatening. When Jiffo witnesses the fatal mauling of his parents by a pack of dingoes, the young boy is set up for a life of booze and crime. By day, Jiffo sells newspapers; by night, he is captain of the gang, known as the Push, whose weapons are switchblades, knives, broken bottles and fists. When Jiffo is seen in a street brawl by Tom Riley, the retired heavyweight champion, Tom sees a coming champ inside the unruly larrikin and invites him to join his stable of fighters at the Iron Pot. With Tom's mentoring and training, Jiffo eventually sails for America as the Australian featherweight champ. To match Jiffo's rise out of the no-hope existence, his girl, Flo Berry, surprises everyone with her own transformation.
