Premiering Tuesday 10 November on SBS, Blackfella Films' 'Addicted Australia' provides extraordinary access to ten Australians and their families as they battle addiction. Signed up to a unique six-month treatment program, the four-part documentary series follows their heart-wrenching journey from despair to hope and possible recovery.
Endemol Shine Australia's 'Old People's Home for 4 Year Olds' has again been honoured at the New York Festivals TV & Film Awards, with the second season of the intergenerational documentary series winning a Grand and Gold Award in the Social Issues category.
The continued rise of streaming services has created a favourable climate for original scripted content while also highlighting the importance of investing in local unscripted programs, according to SBS heads of department Julie Eckersley and John Godfrey.
