Useful information:
A must-see First Nations horror film from the producers of Talk to Me and The Babadook
Sarah and Fergus, a hopeful young Aboriginal couple, give birth to their second baby. But what should be a joyous time of their lives becomes sinister when Sarah starts seeing a malevolent spirit she is convinced is trying to take her baby. Fergus, who can’t see it but desperately wants to believe her, grows increasingly worried as she becomes more unbalanced. Is the child-stealing spirit real or is she in fact the biggest threat to the safety of their family?
Having received its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, The Moogai won the $100,000 Film Prize at the Western Australian CinefestOZ Film Festival, one of the richest film festival prizes in the world.
