A migrant fairytale unfolds in "Friday On My Mind", the story of The Easybeats, a band of five international musicians who met at Villawood Migrant Hostel in 1964. Within a year, they dominated Australia's music charts, and two years later, they became the country's first international rock superstars, generating fan hysteria wherever they performed. However, by 1969, the band's time in the spotlight came to an abrupt end, with lead singer Stevie Wright just 21 years old. In this documentary, the original members of The Easybeats share their story for the first time, 40 years later.
