The Changi Brownlowis the moving and powerful story of Peter Chitty – a farm hand with unfathomable physical and mental fortitude from Snowy River country – who was one of seven in his family who volunteered to serve in World War II.

Set in the worst conditions imaginable – inside the infamous Changi prison in Singapore and on the Thai-Burma Railway – this is a story of courage and the invincibility of the human spirit. Chitty and a group of Aussie POWs created their own AFL competition in the prison, complete with a Brownlow Medal at the end of the season.
