I Was Actually There

剧情简介
I Was Actually There is a bold, new six-part documentary series that explores defining moments of our recent history through the eyes, ears and voices of those who witnessed them firsthand. What was it like to lie quietly on the floor of the Broad Arrow Cafe in Port Arthur while a mass murderer shot everyone around you? How did it feel to be a first responder on the scene of the massacre? To be the journalist who accidentally found herself on the phone with the gunman? Or the sniper tasked with taking him out? How emotional was it to be part of the high-stakes rescue mission of two miners trapped a kilometre underground in Beaconsfield? Or to be one of those miners, caught under the rockfall, writing messages on your clothes in case you never saw your family again? What were you thinking as you lost your grip on your teenage son in the raging waters of the Boxing Day tsunami? Or sped away from a desert detention centre in Woomera with an escaped asylum seeker hiding in your car? Or bantered with The Beatles in their Adelaide hotel room? Or captured the moment on a suburban footy field where a proud Noongar man called out racism? Employing the unfiltered and up-close interviewing style that made You Can't Ask That an international sensation, I Was Actually There uncovers hidden perspectives and never-before-seen footage to create a multi-dimensional, experience-driven picture of the events that shaped Australia.
