Utopia
A blurred vision for Australia's future.
Created by Santo Cilauro, Rob Sitch, Rob Gleisner
On ABC TV
A sharp, fast-paced workplace satire that mines comedy from the collision between bureaucratic dysfunction and idealistic ambition within a government agency.
Set inside the offices of the “Nation Building Authority”, a federal government organisation responsible for overseeing major infrastructure projects, Utopia explores that moment when bureaucracy and grand dreams collide.
