*Synopsis | Asylum Seeker (2013)*
Julian Assange was Australia's most famous asylum seeker. The Wikileaks founder fled to the Ecuadorian Embassy in London to avoid extradition to Sweden, where he was wanted for questioning over allegations of rape. He believed it was a ploy to have him sent to the US for trial over the publication of hundreds of thousands of top secret and highly embarrassing military and diplomatic documents. In 2013, he invited Liz Hayes into his small world, where he talked about thoughts of escape, running for the Australian Senate and how long he can sustain his diplomatic stand-off.
