Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's eloquent and emotional apology to the Stolen Generations brought much of the country to a stand-still, and tears to the eyes of many Australians.
Saying Sorry tells the story of that historic day in Canberra and the profound impact the apology had on members of the Stolen Generations, and the broader Australian community.
The program provides an historical understanding of the Stolen Generations’ story and insight into what is regarded by many Indigenous Australians and their supporters as the most significant step towards reconciliation and bridging the cultural divide in Australia.
Through a mosaic of pre and post apology interviews and emotive footage of people's responses during Rudd's famous apology, Saying Sorry captures the core of emotion in response to the apology, and the grass roots hope for a reconciled nation.
