When a door is blown shut at an office party, near strangers Frankie and Ben find themselves stuck on a rooftop for the weekend. With only a collection of animal props and each other for company, they have nothing to do but reflect on life and love. Starring as the deserted duo are Ryan O’Kane (Tangiwai, Rage) and Australian Emma Leonard (800 Words). Both actors spent time on Aussie soap Home and Away. The feature marks a return to drama directing for Richard Riddiford (Arriving Tuesday, Tarawera), who in recent decades has concentrated on documentaries.
