Sum of Us (Paperback)

Starring Jack Thompson and Russell Crowe, The Sum of Us won an AFI award for the best screenplay adapted from another source. Jeff is a pretty regular guy. A plumber in Sydney, he shares a house with his widowed dad. Harry likes a few beers and is actively looking for a permanent mate. But in this warm comedy, the extraordinary is contained in the relationship between father and son: Jeff is gay and Harry accepts and encourages his son's lifestyle with an enthusiasm that borders on meddlesome. For once, tolerance rather than intolerance, is the focus in a play about gay people.
