Details

Travis is a young man with cerebral palsy, living in a ramshackle Sydney rental. When he loses his maintenance job after lashing out at bullies, Travis ends up in a pub, where he puts his withering sarcasm to good use defending Sunny, a reluctant up-and-comer on the comedy circuit, from a sexist heckler. He is soon after roped into helping the comedian overcome her shyness.
