| Video Discription | From the Film Australia Collection. Made by The Commonwealth Film Unit 1962. Directed by Frank Bagnall. Life on the tiny island in the Central Pacific where Australia is preparing the people for life in the modern world. Nauru has a long association with Australia. From being a United Nations trust territory administered by Australia to becoming one of the worlds largest sources of phosphate mined by Australian companies to an Australian off-shore detention centre for asylum seekers. Nauru is now the world's smallest republic covering just 21 square kilometres. This film looks at Nauru in 1962 when it had the highest per-capita income in the world but when the depletion of the countries phosphate resources was already on the horizon meaning the only industry they had, and the only source of foreign investment, was coming to an end. Having become accustomed to the ways of the modern, industrialised world but with no way of supporting themselves how will the Nauruans maintain their lifestyle? |
