The Screen Guide

An epic tale about the making of Australia. This series tells the stories of the founding fathers and the people in six separate colonies in the decades leading to Federation. It's a tale of winners and losers, of great debates which unified the country, of the struggle not just to make an Australian nation, but to create Australian democracy.
