A very early 90's New Zealand style, which to the rest of the world will seem like a country on the verge of modernity, yet still stuck in a drab 50s-70s period.  Neglected housewife, with a passion for washing dishes, discovers through the help of an anonymous tip off that her hubby's doing the naughty.  To make matters worse, he's bought a dish washer, removing the need for her to indulge her passion.  Throw in the dashing jogger neighbour - the late Kevin Smith - and you end up wiht pure Kiwi surreality.
