Episode Overview

Jack Thompson is a towering figure in Australian cinema, known for iconic roles in Breaker Morant and The Man from Snowy River. Born John Hadley Pain in Sydney in 1940, he has always known little about his biological family's past. After his mother passed away, Jack and his siblings were placed in a local boarding school because their father, Harold, couldn't care for them. Later, he was adopted by the Thompson family and adopted their surname. Now, for the first time, this Australian screen legend uncovers his biological ancestry and reflects on why knowing our own stories truly matters.
