Summary |
Twenty something Brisbanite Dave Zwolenski, whose wide eyed enthusiasm and curiosity saw him Embedded with Sheik Hilaly is back in a new series and determined to uncover anyone who has been criticised, marginalised or has been under public scrutiny in a bid to get under their skin and find out who they really are. In his own quirky way, Dave will discover what it's really like to go on the campaign trail as a politician, be a struggling pensioner, scream like a one-eyed "shock jock", live like a homeless person and a gang-member, and work as an impotence expert. In each episode Dave will submerse himself within the life of someone else. He'll live with them, eat with them, go to work with them and genuinely attempt to walk several kilometres in their shoes. Tonight Dave decides to challenge the idea that all politicians are liars by standing on a platform of complete truth and honesty in the recent Queensland election. Is this a pipe dream, or is Dave pioneering a new way forward? (Commissioned by SBS, in English) (Entertainment Series) M CC WS |
