Island Of The Hungry Ghosts
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 humans who seek asylum have been locked away indefinitely. Their only connection to the outside world is trauma counsellor Poh Lin Lee.
