ストーリー
Actor Darren McWarren (Jason Gann), once a soap opera star known for his indiscretions, now lives in isolation in Gladdington, a small town in Western Victoria, Australia. He spends his days pursuing his music career and enjoying the adoration of local women who are drawn to him like moths to a flame, while their boyfriends grow increasingly jealous. When journalist Ben arrives to write a 'Where Are They Now' profile on McWarren, he finds the actor embracing his newfound freedom, even comparing himself to Errol Flynn. The townsfolk's reaction to McWarren ranges from admiration to animosity, and his presence stirs up tension between them.
