Description :
When the long awaited holiday of cement truck driver Danny (Rhys Ifans) goes south thanks to Trudy (Justine Clarke), his scheming girlfriend, he escapes his suburban prison and blasts into the skies in a garden chair tied with helium balloons. A mighty thunderstorm blows him clean off the map and spits him out far away over the lush green town of Clarence, where he rockets into the world of Glenda (Miranda Otto), the town's only parking cop. While the media back home run riot with the story of his disappearance, Danny gets to reinvent himself in Clarence and in the adventure discovers a true soul mate in Glenda.An Australian cement truck driver, Danny (Ifans), decides to try to escape his life in the drabness of the city after a fight with his girlfriend (Clarke) prevents him from taking a long-awaited vacation.Tying large helium-filled balloons to his deckchair (ie, a lawn chair), Danny sails away into the sky, where a surprise thunderstorm sends him hurtling out over the Outback, eventually finding a small town to settle down in incognito, while the media whips itself into a flurry about his disappearance. Reinventing himself in the small northern town of Clarence, Danny soon falls in love with the town's only parking cop, Glenda (Otto).
