Kindred Spirits is a 1984 Australian film about a young girl who has a psychic experience at Bondi Beach.[1] It was the third in a series of Sunday Australian Movies.[2]
The Sydney Morning Herald's Richard Coleman gave it a bad review stating "David Waters, best known for his Norman Ross commercials, squared his shoulders and said confidently: "Damn, bugger, bum, blast!" That was the high point of a remarkably silly script."[3]
Kindred Spirit won a Ditmar Award at the 1984 Australian Science Fiction Convention.[4]
