Walking On Water is a relatively understated film relying on solid performances and well-scripted dialogue to carry forward a rather dark story about the way in which people deal with grief and loss. When a young gay man, Gavin (David Bonney), who is dying of AIDS, is assisted to suicide with a massive morphine overdose by his two best friends, Charlie (Vince Colosimo) and Anna (Maria Theodorakis), the stress of caring for him is finally released. What results is a pattern of behaviour indicative of post-traumatic stress disorder, each different in accordance with the individual. Charlie goes on a self-destructive binge: drinking, smoking, gambling, and dosing himself up with left-over oral morphine. Anna becomes an obsessive compulsive control freak. And Gavin's brother, Simon (Nathaniel Dean), tries to destroy his own marriage with sexual indiscretion.
The strength of this film lies in its performances. The entire cast is fantastic, and believable in an eerily disturbing way. Music, too, is also used to great effect here.
