Jimmy lives with his extended family in the country village of Point Henry. It's 1969. Neil Armstrong has just landed on the moon and the Vietnam War is raging on television sets across the world. But Jimmy is concerned with matters closer to home, the city people are coming, bringing their pole houses and cul-de-sacs with them. When they aren't wreaking havoc on the village and its people. Jimmy and his friends are trying to make sense of parents, teachers and the hippies who live in a bus on the waterfront. This is much more than a rollercoaster ride of wickedness, love, parental stupidity and everything it means to be a boy. It's a search for meaning, and the sacred spaces of childhood amidst the shrinking fibro frontier.
