The Set, 1970
Main character Paul (Sean McEuan), is a young artist drawn into the amoral world of Sydney's seedy, arty high society, known as "the set". Highly censored before it’s release, there were more than a dozen cuts before the film was passed for export. This drama film directed by Frank Brittain and produced by David Hannay, was the first feature film in Australia to have homosexuality as a main theme.
