Directed by Peter Weir • 1979 • Australia

A mysterious tradesman (Ivar Kants) shows up unbidden at the home of an academic couple (Judy Morris, Robert Colby) and proceeds over the next few days to disassemble their bathroom and related fixtures. The wife seems particularly disturbed by the man's presence and work habits, but both soon find the underpinnings of their intellectual lives and self-image being dismantled along with their pipes, walls, and ceilings in this offbeat Australian comedy.
