We Can Be Heroes is the internationally acclaimed hit comedy series created and written by Chris Lilley. This ground breaking mockumentary follows the daily lives of five very special individuals who are among the thousands of citizens nominated for the prestigious title of Australian of the Year. As portrayed by Lilley, the five nominees are from different parts of the country and represent the full spectrum of Australian society: young and old, male and female, urban and rural, native and emigrant. / The cutting edge, hilarious and sometimes shocking series has taken both Australia and the world by storm, winning two Logie Awards, a Rose d'Or for Best Male Comedy Performance and nominations for four AFI Awards and the Banff World Television Award for Best Comedy.
