| Summary |
There are two kinds of history: official history, the kind taught in schools, and secret history, which explains how things really happened. Persons of Interest is the story of Australia's secret history.In each episode of this new Walkley-nominated series, a 'person of interest' is given their previously secret ASIO intelligence file and asked to explain the allegations contained in it. The program unravels a unique personal, political and cultural history of Australia that still resonates in a world gripped by controversial figures like Edward Snowden and Julian Assange.The series uncovers never-before-seen photographs and covert surveillance film recorded by ASIO. For the first time, 'persons of interest' and former ASIO officers and agents reveal the powerful stories within the files.Tonight's episode features Michael Hyde, who was one of the most notorious student radicals in Australia. His Maoist comrades called for the violent overthrow of the State, and he helped create the Anti-Vietnam Moratorium movement.(Part 2 of 4) (From Australia) (Documentary) PG CC **New Episode**Follow the conversation on twitter #SBSdoco |
