The Vietnamese
S1 E4:
Sean Connolly meets the Abboud Al-Suhairy family who fled persecution in Iraq to live in Australia. Largely overlooked in history books, Mandaeans are a pre-Christian minority religion of ancient Baptists who hold in respect John the Baptist as their principal teacher. Sean is invited to attend a communal baptism on the Nepean River and learns the story of the family's heritage and culture.
