Plot
Shearer Andy John Hargreaves returns to Coolgardie, as he's done every year since he was a young shearer. Stella Wendy Hughes welcomes Andy warmly but her interest cools as old tensions between them are renewed. A young English schoolteacher finds himself stranded when his car breaks down. Stella helps him recover from sunstroke and seduces him. Andy realises that Stella has used him for years, playing his attentions off against any man who takes her fancy. He decides to sell his horses and truck and leave for Sydney.
Release
The film went straight to video, via distributor Filmpac, but the only versions available were cropped in 4:3 format.[5]
