- This film contains three short stories about life in Australia in the 1950's.
- Three stories reflecting a socialist view of Australian life. "Joe Wilson's Mates", from Henry Lawson's "The Union Buries its Dead", shows union members in a country town holding a funeral for an unknown tramp who, nevertheless, carried a union card. In Frank Hardy's "A Load of Wood" men in a make-work job during the Depression assert themselves by stealing firewood from a farmer and distributing it to the poor. The third, "The City" by Ralph Peterson, follows young lovers trying to make a life in the bustle of a big city.
