Helen of Troy was just twelve years old when she ran away with Paris. They were great lovers. As were Romeo and Juliet. Today, they would be The Delinquents.

Romantic comedy that mixes magical realism with traditional Australian urban-outback contrasts. The plot centers on a bored woman (the eponymous Wendy) who conjures up the perfect lover, Jake, while her husband is out on the road suffering comical mishaps.
