The Petrov Affair
The infamous spy scandal that divided a nation
In April, 1954, Vladimir Petrov, head of Soviet espionage in Australia, successfully approached the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation for asylum. His defection sparked the most dramatic spy scandal in Australian history, an affair that tore at the political fabric of this country and severed Australia's diptomatic ties with Russia. This powerful miniseries tells how, in the midst of a hostile Cold War. Petrov and his wife (a former member of the Soviet police plucked from the hands of Russian agents in Darwin), sparked a scandalous Royal Commission, allegations of political conspiracy, and the most bitter federal election in Australian history. The Petrov Affair is an international spy story, a political story, but most of all a human story; the Petrovs themselves, disappearing into the anonymity of the Australian suburbs, forced to adopt false names and personal histories. condemned to lead the secret lives of spies in their chosen haven of freedom.
