Product Overview

Marguerite O'Hara looks at SBS cop show East West 101. The program, set in Sydney's western suburbs is, according to its producer, a 'metaphor for the conscious and unconscious, for reconciliation and difference, for hope versus despair ...' O'Hara writes that the show's real strength is the integration of the domestic and working lives of the officers.
