The Unknown Industrial Prisoner (1971) is a Miles Franklin Award-winning novel by Australian author David Ireland.[1]
In 1978 a film version was planned, to be produced by Richard Mason and directed by Arch Nicholson, with Ken Cameron also working on it. Funding was from Film Australia. However, the Minister for Home Affairs Bob Ellicott cancelled the film on the grounds it was uncommercial, a rare instance of political interference in the Australian film industry.[2][3]
