Stateless

Synopsis

"The series centres on four strangers in an immigration detention centre in the Australian desert: an airline hostess escaping a suburban cult, an Afghan refugee fleeing persecution, a young Australian father escaping a dead-end job and a bureaucrat caught up in a national scandal. When their lives intersect they are pushed to the brink of sanity, yet unlikely and profound emotional connections are made amongst the group. After the sixth and final episode, the epilogue states the program was based upon true stories about Australian immigration detention." [Wikipedia] "Globally, there are currently over 70 million displaced people seeking sanctuary from war and persecution." [closing screen]
