Episode 1

he People vs Robodebt is a compelling three part docu-drama unravelling the human story behind one of Australia's greatest political scandals. In the long hot summer of 2016, the Federal Government's new Online Compliance Intervention scheme roared like a bushfire through Australian society. This automated welfare system soon became known as "Robodebt" and over the next three years, almost half a million Australians were hounded to pay back debts they did not owe.
