Once Upon a Time in Cabramatta is the untold story of how the
Vietnamese community overcame the odds and found their place in
multicultural Australia.

The story begins with the landmark decision of Prime Minister Fraser
to open Australias doors to thousands of refugees at the end of the
Vietnam War. It is a moment in history that finally buries the
infamous White Australia Policy and transforms a nation.

The years that follow are as dramatic as they are turbulent - a
people struggling to find their place in a foreign land. In this one
tiny Sydney suburb, the 80s and 90s see the arrival of street gangs,
a heroin epidemic and the first political assassination in
Australias history.

The Vietnamese people are vilified and demonised. Cabramatta it
seems represents all that is wrong with Asian immigration. Whats
more the community exist against a political backdrop that is
fractured, the universal support for multiculturalism a distant
memory.

But as the century draws to a close there is a remarkable
turnaround. The Vietnamese people finally find their voice
speaking up to claim their rightful, democratic place in their
adopted home. Cabramatta is a community transformed. Australia, a
continent changed forever.
