Examining a case of homegrown terrorism, domestic violence and the upsurge of conservative men’s rights groups in response to the progressive Family Courts, this powerful and engaging new series exposes a chapter of Australian life that has frightening relevance today.
Why did this saga happen in the first place? Who was responsible? Why did it take so long to solve? And ultimately how did justice prevail?
The four-part series exposes a shocking chapter of Australian social history through the eyes and experiences of those that lived it. A trove of repurposed archive together with dramatic storytelling in a ‘triple helix’ of perspectives allows us to access the policing, judiciary and socio-political contexts of the time.
