In this Australian comedy from the 1970s, we follow the misadventures of a young man with a love life more complicated than a thousand-piece puzzle. Alvin, an naive and somewhat clumsy guy, finds himself trapped in a constant cycle of hilarious and unexpected situations. Everything begins when a group of women starts to notice him, thanks to his singular ability to attract girls, despite his lack of experience in the game of love.

Alvin becomes the center of attention for a group of women desperate for companionship, leading to absurd situations in which he must navigate to escape their excessive admiration. Along the way, he encounters a multitude of eccentric characters, each more peculiar than the last, who lead him into increasingly absurd and hilarious situations.

As he tries to find true love, he must also confront his own fears and the pressure of meeting others' expectations. Throughout the film, comedy intertwines with a touch of social commentary, exploring themes such as sexuality and male identity in a changing society.

With a light and comedic approach, the narrative highlights the innocence of its protagonist while immersing him in a world where love and friendship are not always what they seem. The film is an uninhibited journey through the emotional confusion of a young man simply searching for his place in the world.
