Five films on the changing face of Communism.

The development of the Dalmatian coast as a tourist centre is a striking economic success which last year earned the Yugoslavs £90 million in foreign exchange and closed their trade gap. But only twenty miles inland from the glittering coast is another Yugoslavia whose problems still await a solution.
Written and narrated by Fred Singleton.

A series in which Australians look at themselves and their rapidly changing continent.

Paddy Newey, an English Immigrant of two years' standing, is production planning manager in the dockyard at Newcastle, seventy-five miles north of Sydney, and has already established his family on a four-acre estate.
Frank McCormick is a crane driver who believes in home comforts at work: he has wall-to-wall fitted carpet in his cabin. Management and workers do not always see eye to eye, but they are closer together in the social scale than they would be in England.
