When a young mother (Shari Sebbens) who belongs to the Stolen Generations barely survives the traumatic birth of her second child, she begins to have horrific visions threatening her children and turns to her birth mother for help.
A chilling film leveraging the power of supernatural horror to explore real-life human atrocities.
‘Horror movies directed by Indigenous Australians are a largely rare category of cinema, immediately making Jon Bell’s Stolen Generations-themed spook-fest The Moogai a work of cultural significance.’ – The Guardian
Digital screening from the NFSA collection.
