The infiltration of the upper middle class by the hands of the local eshay. Captures such a specific part of Aussie culture in a way you never see laid out so clean. Pretty much every highschool girl in Australia has had a Moses walk into their lives while going through hard times, this film just dials those hard times up to a thousand. It would be easy to push it into melodrama with a premise like that but through Murphy’s restraint we just get a beautiful observation.
