Directed by John Duigan and Chris Noonan. VIETNAM is a stunningly powerful re-enactment of the bitterly controversial issue of Australia’s involvement in what was perceived as an American war. Twelve thousand young Australians were conscripted to Vietnam. Five hundred never returned. On television, terrible images of war were impossible to ignore – in the beginning, few voices protested, but as the war worsened and casualties increased things began to change. The arrival of conscription into the lives of ordinary Australians changed families forever, VIETNAM tells the story of one such family, the Goddards, a family at war and about to be torn apart.
