The fate of the Balibo Five shocked Australia in 1975 and the ghosts of the past were awakened again during the coronial inquest in 2007. National Interest goes behind the headlines and international intrigue to give an authentic voice to the families left behind, those who survive tragedy but refuse to be defined by it, with a true story of a family still in the grip of grief.
