Island of the Hungry Ghosts

2018
Streaming Video
While the yearly crab migration takes place and locals perform rituals for ghosts, a therapist works in Christmas Island's asylum seeker detention center. On an isolated island in the Indian Ocean, land crabs migrate in their millions from the jungle to the sea. The same jungle hides a high-security Australian detention centre where thousands of asylum seekers have been locked away indefinitely. Their only connection to the outside world is trauma counsellor Poh Lin Lee.
