Synopsis

Jason has recently married Anna in the celebrity wedding of the decade. Anna is golf’s “new big thing” and has captured the imagination of the young fans. Jason is still a popular member of the Sunset Beach cast, but his star is starting to wane after a whirlwind rise to popularity culminating in the winning of the Gold Logie three years before. Lee Peterson is Jason’s no-nonsense, hard-nosed agent who sees an opportunity in every situation. His female equivalent is Anna’s manager, Rowena Wilson, who is even more brutal in her approach. Goldie Le Page is a ruthless magazine type to whom sales figures are the only measure of importance. These five personalities all have their own agenda when Anna announces that she is pregnant. Money, publicity and personal feelings come crashing together in an out-of-control combination of greed and other human emotions.

Cast: 2 Males & 3 Females
