The story

In 1968 Australia, Gail and Cynthia head into town to sing at a talent contest. Their younger sister Julie is forbidden to go, partly because of her youth and partly because she already has a child, but she bribes her neighbour to take her to the contest. An alcoholic Irish talent scout, Dave Lovelace, is scolded by his boss for being late despite him sleeping in his car that is near work.
