'Set in rural Australia, Judy begins a secret life as a sex worker to support her 15-year-old son, Lachlan, since a road accident left her husband Dale comatose. Judy manages abusive bookings and confronting work, but finds solace in a sullen client with a terrible secret. Meanwhile Lachlan, mortified by his participation in a grim bonding activity with local misfit Hayden, falls in love with the artistic Morgan – but his overwhelming desire for a bond has devastating consequences.
