A Good Man is the story of Chris Rohrlach, a farmer from Inverell in rural New South Wales who also happens to be the full-time carer for his quadriplegic wife, Rachel. When times got tough on the farm, Chris decided to change industries and opened a brothel.

You read that right. Sounds like doco gold.

The film premieres at the 2009 Adelaide Film Festival on February 21. Chris Rohrlach will be in attendance for a post-screening Q & A.
