The tryst between hot, young tradie Ben (Stephen Peacocke) and 50-year-old separated mother Heather (Doris Younane) takes something of a back seat as Ben’s estranged daughter is thrust upon the household. As in real life, these humans take time to work things out and although it can be agonising watching them do so, it’s ultimately rewarding. The squeamish, though, are advised to look away during the dinner scene.

Meanwhile, Ester (Sacha Horler) meets her own guardian angel in disguise at the office.

Those just discovering this moody band of country kids will see a curious way of navigating love and friendship – completely offline.
