The story
Cass (Michele Fawdon) is a film-maker returning to Sydney after a stint filming the traditional lives of the island Mulala people. Her producer Frank (Peter Whitford) conspires to hijack her footage for a TV special, despite Cass having made a vow to the Mulala people that it would only be shown in specialist academic circles. Cass's doctor husband Mike (John Waters) senses a change in Cass on her return from the islands, and is irritated that she wants to abstain from sex and becoming pregnant.
