Their Life in a Suitcase
Join award winning podcaster and musician Simon Reich as he shares stories of post war migrants via video, archival footage, photo montages, soundscapes and live music.
Migrants formed the backbone of Australia after the Second World War. Their reasons for seeking out a new home included the pursuit of a safe country, far away from the violent war that raged across Europe in the 1940’s. You’ll cry, you’ll laugh. You’ll feel pain and joy. But most of all, you’ll be inspired by the resilience and tenacity of the forefathers of our multicultural nation. The interviews will be emotively embellished by heartfelt music performed live.
