518    Originally produced by National Film and Sound Archive of 
       Australia in 1992. 
520    Following World War Two, one of the largest mass 
       migrations in history took place. More than five million 
       people came to Australia, transforming it into the most 
       multicultural country on earth. However, this was never 
       meant to be. For much of the 20th century, successive 
       Australian governments pursued a policy of deporting and 
       barring entry to any race of people they considered 
       undesirable. This was known as the White Australia policy.
       Admission Impossible is the true story of the behind-the-
       scenes political forces and propaganda campaigns that 
       attempted to populate Australia with “pure white” 
       migrants. The fear of being “swamped” with Asian 
       immigrants kept this policy in place for over seven 
       decades. This compelling story of how the shifts and 
       upheavals in Asia, from colonial control to emerging new 
       nations, caused great unease in Australia and strengthened
       the government's resolve to keep Australia “white” and 
       “European”. Eyewitness accounts and recently discovered 
       confidential documents reveal how immigration officers 
       carried out racial selectivity following examination by 
       medical officers for signs of "colour". The White 
       Australia policy was officially scrapped in 1972. Today 
       Australia is still coming to terms with being part of the 
       Asian region.  A Film Australia National Interest Program.
