Paramount Upfront 2026
Dalliance follows Billy (Hugo Weaving) an ex-cameraman who meets Dani (Heather Mitchell) on the Sydney Harbour ferry in a colliding of worlds. The attraction is obvious, and the writing would be on the wall… if Billy wasn’t happily married to his wife of 40 years, Rose (Georgie Parker).
But everything changes when Billy dies from a sudden heart attack while he’s with Dani. As his friends are reunited at his wake, and then find their own ways to move on, Billy’s untimely demise has far-reaching effects, with intimate relationships formed and others broken within the group.
Dalliance is sometimes heart wrenching and often hilarious as our friends discover that life, love, and sex in their sixties is not what they expected.
