Charles and his older brother John are both expected to work on their parents' farm. Charles loves it but John is lazy, evading his work at every turn. Both boys will soon be sent to England to learn how to be refined young gentlemen.

But it's a devil's bargain and Charles finds himself being held to ransom by the ever increasing demands from the convict.Produced by Penny Chapman and Helen Panckhurst. 1818 Charles is directed by Samantha Lang and script by Alice Addison. A Matchbox Pictures Production in association with Screen NSW and Screen Tasmania |
