Going Down

Three young women contend with the rougher side of night (and day) life in the big city of Sydney as one of them gets ready to take off on a flight to New York. The women go to nightclubs, bars, and the beach, they trip out on drugs, one tries to land a job, another tries prostitution for a short while, and through it all, the friends alternately argue and make up -- all within an 18-hour span of time. A tragic postscript to the film: actress Vera Plevnik who played one of the three women (Jane) was killed in a car crash not long after the movie was completed.
