In the 1970s, dedicated social worker Margaret Humphreys discovers a disturbing secret – the forced emigration of thousands of British children to Australia. These children were separated from their families and communities, leaving a lasting impact on all involved. Driven by a strong sense of justice, Margaret tirelessly works to uncover the truth and reunite the affected families, confronting a flawed system and challenging those responsible for this painful chapter in history.
