BFI introduction:
Newly arrived in Indonesia, an inexperienced Australian reporter investigates the country’s political turmoil. A charismatic war photographer with dwarfism gives him helpful tips and introduces him to a beautiful British Embassy employee, setting the stage for a whirlwind love affair. Weir’s first foray into romance imbues love with existential weight, framing both passion and journalistic integrity as brave acts of caring.
