A young Aboriginal couple has just had their first child, but what should be one of the happiest times in their lives turns to terror when Sarah starts seeing a malevolent spirit she believes is trying to take her baby. Her husband Fergus desperately wants to believe her, but as she becomes more unstable he is increasingly concerned for the safety of their child. Is Sarah really being visited by a child-stealing spirit, or is she the biggest threat to their family’s safety?

THE MOOGAI explores post-natal depression, transgenerational trauma, and Australia’s
stolen generation. But it is also a story of the value of children and the power of family.
