Selling Australia: Tourist Town

Streaming video - 2001

In tropical far-north Queensland, Cairns is a tourist mecca. As planeload after planeload of visitors arrive, even the customs officials are getting training in hospitality and cultural sensitivity. For tourists, the town seems pretty close to paradise, but it’s not quite perfect. Cairns has no beach. No problem - Cairns City Council has decided to build one. However, as the heavy machinery moves in, some locals are up in arms. It seems that, for the sake of its biggest industry, Cairns will do virtually anything to please.. A Film Australia National Interest Program in association with Prospero Productions Pty Ltd. Produced with the assistance of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. 2011 National Film and Sound Archive of Australia.....
