About the episode

1975 was a time of change in global politics. There was the horror of the Pol Pot genocide, the end of the Vietnam War - while in Australia there was the dismissal of the Labor Whitlam government. It was also a time when Australia was rapidly changing into the multicultural society we see today, coinciding with the birth of the nation's multilingual broadcaster: SBS.
