Plot summary
Casey has grown up on a rural Australian farm. When he is outed as gay, his father rejects him, and Casey leaves for Sydney, running from a scandal in his small town. He arrives in the city with little money and no place to stay. There he meets Tib, a city man, and the two begin as a casual sexual hookup. Neither of them knows how to negotiate what grows between them, and each finds something he has been missing. An older gay man, Pietro, offers Casey work as a houseboy.
