What happens

3 to Go is an Australian portmanteau film consisting of three stories— Michael, Judy, and Toula—each presenting a young Australian at a moment of decision about their future. It was the Australian government controlled Commonwealth Film Unit's first fiction feature film. The film was first shown on Australian television in February 1971. The film won the Silver Medallion at the Australian Film Institute Awards and one of the stories, Michael, written and directed by Peter Weir, won the 1971 AFI Grand Prix Award.
