Nick is a Greek-Australian high-school student with ambitions to become a world-class soccer player. Christina Papadopoulos is the new Greek teacher, caught between traditional Greek expectations and her own feelings as a woman in the 1990s. Together, they take on the school's racist sportsmaster, who is determined that Australian Rules football be the school's only official sport. The Heartbreak Kid is a warm-hearted, sexy comedy about two people discovering each other, themselves, and the future.

Travelling North is the story of a man's struggle to retain his dignity in the face of adversity and of his relationships with those around him. The narrative, with its King Lear overtones, revolves around Frank, a crotchety old man who nevertheless has an unending zest and passion for life, and his companion Frances. As events unfold, she watches helplessly as Frank attempts to come to terms with the complexity of his personality and his strong desire to live his remaining days to the fullest.
