Touch the Sun was a television series commissioned by the Australian Children's Television Foundation in 1988 as part of the Australian Bicentenary celebrations. It may have been intended that seven feature-length episodes were produced, one for each State, plus the Northern Territory, but only six were completed. Executive producer was Patricia Edgar in association with the ABC and production company Revcom.
Alice is a young, tough, independent child. Her mum, Sue, works as a blackjack dealer in the Darwin casino and so Alice has learnt to take care of herself. She's a no-nonsense kind of girl, which often lands her in sparring arguments with her friend Mick, an Aboriginal boy who goes to the same school.
