It features Placid Lake (Lee), a seventeen-year-old boy who has led a suburban hippie life with his neurotic, free loving parents.

Lake has a smart friend Gemma (played by Byrne) who tries to talk him out of his newly found economic rationalism. The Rage in Placid Lake grossed $482,798 at the box office in Australia,. LESS
