Displaced Persons is a 1985 Australian TV movie about refugees arriving in Australia in 1945.[1] [2]
It was the first script written by Louis Nowra, who was inspired by a book he read about displaced people in Australia after World War Two. He wrote it in three days and sent it to the ABC who agreed to make it.[3]
The movie was well received and Nowra went on to write a number of works for the ABC.
