'A feature film set in 1970’s Western Australia, about a washed-up Irish boxer Kid Snow who is offered a rematch against a man he fought 10 years ago, on a night that changed his life forever. Finally faced with a chance to redeem himself, Kid comes to a crossroads when he meets single mother Sunny and is forced to contemplate a future beyond boxing.'

'Johnston's debut feature following on from his award winning shorts 'Night Out' and 'Eternity', is a dynamic re-visioning of actor/playwright John Brumpton's theatre piece "Containment" that focused on the situation of inmates in the segregated HIV positive section of an Australian prison. To describe Johnston's beautifully composed, movingly rendered, emotionally shattering film as 'an AIDS prison drama' denies it the full range and reach of its compelling grip on any number of wider issues and universal concerns. Brumpton forcefully fleshes out the lead role of quick-tempered hardened Des, a crim who tests positive and is sent to T2 division. His relationship with his cell-mate Ralph is vividly evoked via subliminal flashbacks and interaction between themselves and amongst the other inmates of T2.' (ACMI)
