Story
In the small Australian town of Sunray along the Murray River, local radio station DJ Ken Sherry arrives from Brisbane. He's mid-40s, detached, and thrice divorced. The two sisters next door, Dimity and Vicki-Ann, both find him attractive despite his gruff exterior. Dimity, who works at a Chinese restaurant with few patrons, is shy and awkward, while Vicki-Ann, a hairdresser, is more outgoing and hopeful for a future with Ken. Dimity and then Vicki-Ann spend the night with Ken, leading to confusion and tension between them as each believes they are now his girlfriend or fiancée. Eventually, Dimity begins to suspect something is not right.
