Four Corners Eyes Wide Open
When was the last time you had a good night's sleep? Are you one of the million-plus Australians who spend their nights watching the minutes tick by, dreading the morning, knowing you'll be exhausted? Some say it feels like dragging a piano around, an awful deadening weight. So why are so many of us unable to sleep? For one in 20 Australians, sleep is no longer a given, it's a luxury.
Four Corners is Australia's premier television current affairs program. It has been part of the Australian story since August 1961, exposing scandals, triggering inquiries, firing debate, confronting taboos and interpreting fads, trends and sub-cultures. Its consistently high standards of journalism and film-making have earned international recognition and an array of Walkleys, Logies and other national awards.
