The Land That Waited is a 1963 Australian documentary film telling the story of early white settlement of Australia.[1][2] It starts with the arrival of Governor Phillip and looks at the creation of a settlement at Botany Bay.[3] It then follows the next generation further out into Australia's vast land.[4] It tells it story through the use of contemporary etchings, paintings and drawings.[5] A book of the same title which was drawn from the film was released in 1968, written by the film's script writer Max Harris along with Alison Forbes.[6] The film won the 1963 Australian Film Institute award for Best Documentary.[7]
