My Australian Mafia Road Trip

Auteur(s): SBS
  • Résumé

  • What connects a stabbing in Fitzroy to a series of murders in the Queen Victoria Market and the disappearance of an aspiring politician in Griffith? In the 1960s, Australians first heard the word 'ndrangheta', the name for a ruthless mafia with origins in Calabria, that had taken root Down Under. My Australian Mafia Roadtrip will take you on a journey between Melbourne, Griffith and Mildura to discover key sites in Australia's mafia history. You will meet the protagonists of a century-old story and, together with hosts Carlo Oreglia and Anna Sergi, discover what lies behind the headlines.

    The first official 'ndrangheta murder was in 1945 in Fitzroy and twenty years later the Queen Victoria Market was rocked by a mafia war.
