Brandon has just graduated from university as a primary school
teacher. As he travels to his first teaching post, he wonders what
he's got himself into. From the airplane, the tiny town of
Gunnanilla looks no bigger than a cattle station. And when he
lands, he steps into heat such as he has never encountered before.
Sweating and feeling faint from the extreme temperature, he meets
his new boss Mark Petersen, the racist principal of the only school
for miles around. Then he meets the school's other teacher, Mark's
wife Trina, and the students, most of whom are Australian
Aborigines.
Life in the small town is no picnic. In the summer, the heat is
unrelenting. In the wet season, the town is cut off from the
outside world and all deliveries are brought to a halt. There is
only one television channel. To top it all off, there are any
number of poisonous creatures around, such as snakes, scorpions,
and spiders. How's a poor city boy like Brandon, who's interested
in fashion, music, and clubbing and none too confident with his
sexuality, going to cope?
Enter the handsome, rough-around-the-edges miner, Frank. When Mark
warns Brandon that Frank is gay, it seems this town might finally
have something to keep him entertained. But how can he meet Frank
without drawing attention to his own sexuality? How can anything
possibly happen between them in such rough, tough, and macho
surroundings?
