    Gentle, funny, touching

    Interesting period drama about a love affair between two star--crossed pupils at an Australian boarding school in 60s.

    So far, so familiar? Well, not really. 'Flirting' is more than the sum of its parts. The film keeps you on your toes with its quirky characters, thought provoking relationships and unexpected turns. It's low key and subtle - but that's all part of its charm.
