She discovered a secret that the British government had kept hidden for years: one hundred and thirty thousand children in care had been sent abroad to commonwealth countries, mainly Australia. Children as young as four had been told that their parents were dead, and been sent to children's homes on the other side of the world. Many were subjected to appalling abuse. They were promised oranges and sunshine, they got hard labour and life in institutions. Based on the book "Empty Cradles" by Margaret Humphreys. Starring Emily Watson, David Wenham, Hugo Weaving, Richard Dillane, Lorraine Ashbourne, Kate Rutter, Greg Stone and Tara Morice.
“Heartbreaking. Explosive. Top-notch” Richard Kuipers, VARIETY
“Beautifully and sensitively crafted…mesmerizing performances…Watson is luminous.” Mariella Frostrup, HARPERS BAZAAR (UK)
“Terrific. Emily Watson is on staggering form.....A powerful real-life story told with sensitivity and grace” Dave Calhoun, TIME OUT (UK)
