Created by Roger Simpson and flowing with Australian pioneering spirit, Snowy is a 13 part historical TV series from the award-winning producers Simpson Le Mesurier, setting the migrant experience against the dramatic backdrop of one of the world's most ambitious engineering projects-the Snowy Mountains Hydro-electric Scheme in 1949.
The Logan family run a small hotel in the remote township of Cooma, a dusty yet peaceful place to call home. But the building of an enormous dam is about to turn Cooma into a wild new frontier. With the surge of hopeful immigrants, shady hustlers and colourful characters - life will never be quite the same for the Logan family - a dramatic existence seasoned with passion and danger, cultural intrigue and the inescapable bustle of change.
Starring Logic Award winner Rebecca Gibney Snowy features a first-class cast, including William McInnes, Catherine Wilkin, Lucy Bell, Bernard Curry, Jochen Horst, Annie Jones, Jacek Koman, Neil Melville and Bill Kerr. Also included is the 1950s SHELL Film Unit produced historical documentary The Forerunner, exploring Australia's physical and social landscape of the time and incorporating rare and insightful location footage of the Snowy Hydro-Electric build.
