The Screen Guide

SUMMER BREAKS is a highly visual portrait of teenage kids hanging out in the burbs. The film is a glimpse into the lives of two 15-year-old boys, Benny and Sam. Loosely set somewhere in the late 80s, the story follows two friends as they wander the neighbourhood streets on a sweltering summer’s day. An unexpected encounter with two of the neighbourhood’s most sort after girls and a local teen thug leads them to a trip to the local oval and a late night swim. Their day turns to night and becomes a little more interesting than they expected.
