Changi is a story of Australian mateship, of boys who become men in a climate of fear, who react to the terror around them in the way they know best. They laugh at it... and survive.
Written by John Doyle and starring Stephen Curry, Leon Ford, Anthony Hayes, Bill Kerr, Desmond Kelly, Geoff Morrell, Matthew Newton, Mark Priestley, Charles 'Bud' Tingwell, Matthew Whittet and Frank Wilson, this series follows six young Australians who go to war full of confidence and bravado.
When Singapore falls in 1942 they are marched off to Changi where they survive three-and-a-half years of life as prisoners of war. Humour is their key to survival.
Changi was a real challenge to convert from script to screen, because the script had so many levels of drama to take into account, says producer Bill Hughes,Theyve got life, death, comedy, tragedy, music, song and dance, dream sequences, the lot. Trying to be true to the spirit of Selarang Barracks in Singapore during World War II was as much a part of the challenge as casting and coordinating the 112 speaking roles in the series.
Beautifully directed by Kate Woods (Looking for Alibrandi, The Farm), Changi successfully found a visual language to realise the original voice in John Doyles writing the contradictory nature of humour and tragedy.
ABC DVD is pleased to present the release of CHANGI THE COMPLETE SERIES on DVD doublepack, containing a special one-hour commentary by John Doyle and Kate Woods.Life, death, comedy, tragedy, music, song, dance, dream sequences, Changi captures it all.
