Synopsis

Les and Errol are two elderly brothers living on their family property of Pleasance. Their existence is well-worn, a functional marriage of needs that neither questions. Then one day Marie, Errol's past love, returns to the district. The two are once again drawn to one another and as Errol spends more time with Marie, his relationship with Les becomes strained.
