Guided by the powerful voices of survivors, Indefinite takes the audience on an immersive journey into the uncertainty and despair of the UK’s immigration detention system. The film is Darren Emerson’s second, following on from Witness 360: 7/7.
Concealed behind 20ft prison walls, on the hem of cities, thousands of people are in detention with no time limit. In this psychological pressure cooker, people desperately try to prove why they should be able to stay in the UK. The film hears the voices of those with first-hand experience of being detained as they lift the veil on the realities of a detention system that strips away identities, and further damages society’s most vulnerable.
