Part travelogue, part coming-of-age story, Sweet As tells the tale of an indigenous teen in Western Australia, the “at risk’’ daughter of a drug addicted mother, who might end up lost in the welfare system. But her life gets turned around after a kindly uncle sends her on a photo safari trip with other teens like her. The scenery is spectacular, and the girl turns out to be a natural with a camera. As her creativity blossoms, so does her ability to thrive.
