Ten Pound Poms (2023)
Every dream has its price.
A group of Brits leave dreary post-war Britain in 1956 to embark on a life-altering adventure on the other side of the world. For only a tenner, they have been promised a better quality of life by the sea in sun-soaked Australia, but life down under isn’t exactly idyllic. Struggling with their new identity as immigrants, we follow their triumphs and pitfalls as they adapt to a new life in a new country, far from Britain and familiarity.
