In order to celebrate the 90th birthday of her mother, Yannoula, Greek-Australian Olympia Panagiotopoulou thought up an unusual gift. Apart from the family party she organised, in an effort to turn the clock 50 years back, she placed an ad in the Greek-Australian newspaper, “Neos Cosmos”, asking Greek-Australians who arrived in Australia on the ship “Tasmania”, which sailed from Piraeus Port in August 1955, to contact her.
Her aim was to re-connect the passengers of that ship, in order to share memories and recollections about their long voyage to the land “Down Under”, which her mother had made, and to make a documentary about the mass post-war migration to Australia. She is also calling on other Greek-Australians, who travelled to Australia by ship during that period to contact her, so that she may further enrich her film.
