The pain of life and love...

“Polished cast defies easy expectations” — David Stratton, The Australian 3½ stars

18-year-old Jay has had enough of life. 28-year-old Liz can’t get enough of it. And as Jay (Jordan Dulieu) stands on a cliff top contemplating putting an end to the meaningless miasma of his existence, Liz (Freyja Benjamin) lands in town on the latest leg of her endless adventures backpacking the globe. After a sliding doors moment brings this unlikely pair together, they form a deep and immediate bond - much to the chagrin of Jay’s privileged but jaded socialite parents (Gigi Edgley & Martin Crewes).

Unfortunately, Liz’s laissez-faire lifestyle is brought to an abrupt halt by a life-threatening mystery illness and, as Jay becomes more and more entwined in her plight, all four are forced to come to terms with their world views in this harrowing, provocative, yet ultimately uplifting saga.
