'Like Geneva, Canberra is built around a lake and is home to a transient population constantly in flux: the politicians, political advisers, and public servants, a coming-and-going breed of nomads that contrast to those born and bred in the city. The Back of Beyond ... explore[s] the intersection between politics, the service and those living in suburbia from the perspective of the various, and at times, conflicting parties of Canberra society.'
