When Art (Richard Roxburgh) and Vance Watkins (Tom Long) re-open the doors of the neglected resort they grew up in at the eastern-most point of the Australian continent they're prepared for the place to become a haven for travellers, adventurers and escapees from life's dark places. What they're not prepared for is the arrival of their estranged father.
Gerry Watkins (Nick Tate) has disappointed many people over his haphazard lifetime - but hitting the road for a new adventure has always helped him happily forget. So when the road grows too long and lonely and he returns to stake his eleventh-hour emotional claim on the Far Out East, he's finally forced to face the music.
While Vance is willing to forget, Art can only forgive the worst in his father when he begins to embrace the best and it's then he discovers his own glorious ratbag within.
