Flirting - Spiel mit der Liebe (1991)
Danny Embling, ein unbeholfener, unterentwickelter Teenager, der zeitweilig an Stotteranfällen leidet, besucht ein Jungeninternat in New South Wales in Australien. Es ist das Jahr 1965, und es sind einige Jahre vergangen, seitdem Danny eine romantische Beziehung mit einem Mädchen hatte (seine frühere große Liebe Freya aus Das Jahr meiner ersten Liebe verließ ihn an einem kritischen Punkt in seiner sexuellen Entwicklung). Langsam beginnt er Gefühle für Thandiwe Adjewa, ein ugandisch-kenianisch-britisches Mädchen (Vater Ugander, Mutter Kenianische Britin), das die Mädchenschule jenseits des Sees besucht, zu entwickeln. Über den ganzen Verlauf des Schuljahres pflegen sie eine heranreifende Romanze, den vorhandenen strengen Vorschriften zum Trotz. Speziell Rassenpolitik (das Paar ist gemischtrassig) und gesellschaftliche Konventionen (Thandiwe wird von religiös beeinflussten Autoritätspersonen als rebellisch und dem Sexuellen zu offen eingestellt angesehen) bereiten Probleme.
