The film tells the story of award-winning Kurdish journalist and writer Behrouz Boochani. He fled the Iranian regime, seeking asylum in Australia in 2013, only to be exiled to the offshore immigration detention centre on Manus Island, in Papua New Guinea. It follows Behrouz as he navigates life in detention, and leads the resistance to indefinite detention. And finally his life in Christchurch, New Zealand as a free man, after being held for over six years by the Australian and PNG governments on Manus Island. Behrouz’s book 'No Friend but the Mountains’ written while in detention on his mobile phone has become one of the most celebrated books in Australia in recent times, winning among others the most prestigious literary award, the 2019 Victorian Prize for Literature.
