| Description |
Eight Pommies come out as assisted immigrants in 1957-58, facing a bonded two year stay, and reflect to the audience the differences between developed Britain and raw New Zealand according to their various temperaments. The secondary theme reminds us of the immense changes within this country since those days. |
