Spanning four decades and charting the collapse of communist power, Peter Duncan's stunning debut feature film is a black comedy of epic proportions. In 1952, Joan Fraser, the unrivalled desideratum of every red-hearted man in Sydney's inner west, is invited to the Kremlin. Joseph Stalin, attracted by her passionate political correspondence, then smitten by her physical charms, beds her...and promptly drops dead. When young Joe is born in Balmain nine months later there is some uncertainty -- her son is destined for greatness and she will stage-manage his rise. The great curve of history seems set to frustrate Joan's plans for her son, as Communism's star sets -- yet, prison, love and family conspire to recover an apparently lost destiny.
