A 13-part historical TV series from award-winning producers Simpson Le Mesurier chronicles the migrant experience against the backdrop of one of the world's most ambitious engineering projects – the Snowy Mountains Hydro-electric Scheme in 1949. The Logan family runs a small hotel in the remote township of Cooma, a dusty yet peaceful place that becomes transformed when construction begins on an enormous dam. As immigration surges and shady characters move into town, life for the Logans is forever altered.
