The Dirtwater Dynasty(1988)

A saga as bold as the heart of Australia.

The Dirtwater Dynasty is an Australian drama miniseries that aired on Network Ten in 1988, following three generations across eight decades of triumph, rivalry and despair. Richard Eastwick arrives in Australia from the London slums in 1878 at age twenty, armed only with courage and ambition. He builds a cattle and land empire, starts a family, and forges both fierce friendships and bitter enmities. Two world wars and economic depression test his resolve and threaten everything he's created, yet his obsession with establishing a lasting dynasty keeps him fighting. Directed by Michael Jenkins and John Power, the five-part miniseries charts the cost of ambition and the toll of history on one man's dream.
