"Walking on Water" is a 2002 Australian drama film directed by Tony Ayres. The film explores the grief, tenderness, stupidity and humour that arises from death. When Gavin is finally laid to rest after a grueling fight with AIDS, his close friends Charlie and Anna find themselves at odds regarding the way he went. In the weekend that passes, Gavin's estranged family come to stay, which only adds more tension to the strained household. As Charlie tries to cling to his distant partner Frank, and Anna begins a sexual affair with Gavin's married brother, the pair realise now that Gavin has gone there is no one to keep them together, or even keep them in line.
