Powerful and unflinching, The People vs Robodebt is an emotionally charged political thriller which unravels the devastating human story behind one of Australia’s greatest political scandals. 
The full three-part docu-drama series will be air weekly on SBS, starting 24 September. 
In the long hot summer of 2016, the federal government's new Online Compliance Intervention scheme roared like a bushfire through Australian society.   This automated welfare system soon became known as "Robodebt" and over the next three years, almost half a million Australians were hounded to pay back debts they did not owe.   The system was later found to be inaccurate, unethical and illegal. Some people lost their savings, their homes, their marriages and a few lost their lives. 
A brave handful of Australians witnessed what was happening and took a stand. In The People vs Robodebt many of these people tell their full story for the first time.
