Sydney is under siege from young revolutionaries. Michael becomes part of the world of the new radicals, but is it where he belongs?

Each self-contained episode of THREE TO GO focuses on a young Australian from a different background facing a momentous choice about their future. Rebellion or conformity? City or country? Tradition or modernity?

THREE TO GO: MICHAEL is also the first narrative film made by acclaimed director Peter Weir (Picnic at Hanging Rock, Gallipoli, The Truman Show) and won the top prize at the Australian Film Awards in 1970.
