The story
Lilli is one of three backing singers for a touring Elvis impersonator until she is fired. Then, sacked at the beginning of winter she is stranded due to a defective car in a ramshackle beach town on the windswept coast of New South Wales. This remote working class tourist town has a pervasive sense of rootlessness.
