The Review: A socially clumsy Mormon door-to-door preacher falls in lust with one of the neighborhood wives who happens to let him in, but tries to cover up the relationship with embarrassing results. The final confrontation is slightly amusing but very awkward, as is the whole concept.

Australian.

One of the 2006 Academy Award nominees for live action short feature; others included Helmer and Son, One Too Many, Binta and the Grand Idea and West Bank Story.
