The story revolves around two childhood friends, Manfred and Tony, who were nurtured in the country-side in the fifties and enjoyed the utopia of a nation at peace that was carefree and full of hope after WWII. Vietnam replaced all that with a dystopia where conflicting ideologies trapped one in the dehumanising cauldron of war and spat out the other onto the streets in protest against it. As they tried to adjust to a new divided Australia one hid from the society that spurned him while the other sought solace in the hippie communes of the North. Years later, they are reunited and search for a way to re-enter the paradise that Vietnam ... Viet-Bloody-Nam, stole from them.
