History Through Film: The Prime Minister is Missing
Monday 19 February 2024 at 11:00AM
Melton Library & Learning Hub
Event Description
With Australia at war in Vietnam in 1967, suddenly Prime Minister Harold Holt disappeared without a trace—an event unparalleled in the history of western democracy.
The nation was in shock and disbelief at the shattering news, hoping for a miracle for the man who famously declared it was “all the way with LBJ”.
Why did Holt go into such violent surf that day? Had he chosen a bizarre way out of a difficult situation? Why were police withholding crucial facts? What had they overlooked?
Come along one Monday of every month for a documentary showcasing the history of our nation.
