Journeys to Australia

‘Come over to the sunny side now!’ urged a 1967 TV commercial spruiking a move down under. Yet the story of immigration is bigger than slogans. Documentaries, newsreels and personal accounts capture the hopes, challenges and everyday lives of people who crossed oceans to make Australia home. Screen history here reveals the changing face of the nation, through voices and visions that span generations. Explore the journeys that shaped modern Australia.
