This is a small town aussie surfer movie. Two of the main characters are in fairly sad situations. Midge lives with his alcoholic mother and has never known which of the men in town was his father. His best friend's brother returns home after four years away, having left due to being outed as gay and having an affair with his teacher. Midge falls for him as they begin seeing each other. The film also has surfing, parties, a very unorthodox job, straight sex, family confrontation, good rock music, and an emotional conclusion. I have watched this every few years and likely will continue to return to it over time for it's unique setting, emotional honesty and sardonic humor. Recommended.
