From acclaimed directors Fred Schepisi (The Devil's Playground), Tim Burstall (Alvin Purple), John B. Murray (The Naked Bunyip) and David Baker (The Great Mac Arthy), comes this groundbreaking anthology film exploring 1970s sexual behaviour.

Scripted by four of Australia's greatest authors (David Williamson, Thomas Keneally, Hal Porter and Craig McGregor), this quartet of carnal desires explores adultery and jealous fantasies, the end of childhood innocence, the moral and spiritual conflicts of a priest and a nun in love. The stories define the exploration of women and the cultural upheaval of the early 70s.

Starring in these tales of lust and conflict area a who's-who of Aussie talent - including Jack Thompson, Max Gillies, Judy Morris, Robyn Nevin, Arthur Dignam and Elke Neidhardt.
