    In The Wait, Mozhgan and journalist Nicole Curby investigate how Australia has created a new border, inside Indonesia, and ask who’s responsible for its consequences. In a disused army barracks, a forgotten church garden, and the hills above Jakarta, Mozhgan and Nicole meet the people who are stuck there. As they go, they're trying to find out: what does it mean to be caught forever on the run, trapped in a permanent in-between? Can the future hold any hope? Threaded through it all is Mozghan’s drive and her fear: will she—and her family—survive the wait? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
