1967, Australia. As anti-war protestors march in the streets, it is the end of the school year and boys in a Catholic school prepare for their final exams. The cadets plan their regimental dinner and the Colonel will attend.

Dominic Connolly, a talented, passionate and committed opponent of the war, chooses this time to stage a personal demonstration. His action leads him to the school's infirmary. In this place of healing he must reconcile his impulse for freedom with the need for responsibility: to choose a life of conformity or rebellion, and to live with the consequences.
