I saw this film in the late 1980s on the local uhf television station. I think this film is what piqued my interest in Australian films. I have thought about this film from time to time and have looked for it but to no avail.
This may not be a masterpiece but the film is rather enjoyable. The setting takes place near a stage while on the world stage we are made aware some nuclear powers are waging war.
The world is not over yet and you sense the realization the end is near has not completely sunk in but there is a sadness or sense of imminent loss.
I really like the fact that the actors looked like ordinary people and like ordinary people they responded to the news in an ordinary way as perhaps a person in their late teens or early twenties would. It is a rude awakening to the harshness of life but somehow the characters manage to make the most of it.
This film does not appear to be on dvd or vhs but I hope it becomes available soon. It is sad that teen movies today seem to lack distinction.
