Jimmy, played by Heath Ledger, is a 19-year-old who lives in a run down block of units in the inner suburbs of Sydney. He earns money by working as a barker outside a strip club in Kings Cross with his friend Les, and by partaking in underground fights. However, he aspires to follow in the footsteps of his deceased older brother, Michael, in joining the ranks of the local criminal element led by charismatic mob boss Pando. When Jimmy gets jacked by two street kids, he's indebted to Pando for $10,000. Running out of time, he schemes to rob a bank with the help of his friend Deirdre and others, while also bonding with beautiful girl Alex.
