Summaries

Small town's gym hires a city masseuse, stirring hidden passions and conflicts, exposing the community's underlying dynamics as her presence disrupts the town's surface tranquility.

In small-town New Zealand, the gung-ho town council decides that what the town needs to put it on the map is a massage parlour. To this end they bring masseuse, Sandra to town. Her presence in such a conservative village stirs up emotions not normally expressed in rural New Zealand.—Evan Yates
