Am I Your Dream?

Synopsis:
Summertime when things don't seem to be able to get any better, two teenagers spot the partner of their dreams - each other. But what do you do? Do you run over and say, Listen, do you want to spend the rest of your life with me or do you just watch and wonder? How can you tell if they feel the same way, how will you ever know unless you break the ice? or they break the ice? Nobody teaches you the answer to the question everybody asks themselves one time or another. Enter the minds of the two teens and find out close we can come to the answer without even realising it.

McHappiness

Synopsis:
McHappiness. One moment of joy between two buns. All wrapped up in an environmentally unfriendly package, and sold to a million people all over the world. And then you eat it, and it's gone and you spend the rest of your life looking for some more. Two strangers in a car together, connected only by a mutual friend, discuss life and the passages of time. Both are on the brink of change - the girl's family is moving to Queensland, the boy is leaving for university. By sharing a perfect moment together, they realise that time is a state of mind , and just when 'McHappiness' comes your way, you are forced to move on and pursue it once more.

They Sold Their Souls To Santa

Synopsis:
Christmas is far from a time of joy for Lydia. She has to cope with the bimbo cousin from hell, her adulterous aunt, a father obsessed with his barbecue, his drunken best mate Frank, a mother who doesn't understand and a season that seems to mean less about the birth of some guy who eventually got nailed to a tree and more about beer, brandy butter and giant teddy bears. However, the arrival of Ray, Frank's handsome and understanding son, and a decidedly 'angelic' little boy, means that maybe Christmas will mean something special to Lydia this year after all.
