| Summary |
'Four-part observational documentary series about missing persons and the agencies charged with the burden of locating them, a mammoth task considering that 30,000 people are reported missing each year. In Australia, 10,000 Aboriginals are seeking lost families as a result of government policies which removed Aboriginal children from their parents and placed them with white families, or in institutions. Link-Up is the Aboriginal organisation charged with the task of reconnecting these people with lives long thought lost. NSW Link-Up caseworker George Ellis is one such person. Placed in a home himself, as a child, George, like all Link-Up employees first approached Link Up as a client. We follow him through three heart-wrenching searches ? undertaken on behalf of two men and a family. (Commissioned by SBS Independent, in English) (Part 3) PG (Rpt) CC WS ' -- edited from website |
