This Australian classic is from a time where Australia didn't really have it's own film makers. It is very much a call to European markets of the day to come to Australia to not only build the country but also build their own Australian dream. While this isn't Oz-sploitation there are some real hints here that there was something bubbling under the surface. A great cast with Australian acting stalwarts as Chips Rafferty and a special guest appearance by Graham Kennedy. Better than the Barry Mackenzie and Alvin Purple movies that would come along in the early 70's. Watch this with Wake In Fright for a double feature of assimilation stories Australian style.
