Virga (2022)

Overview

With widening wealth disparities between Asian countries and increase in migrant labor, a new social conflict has emerged. The injustices and harsh conditions faced by those who crossed borders to overcome their poverty are now being passed on to their children. They are in Taiwan, in the Philippines, in Thailand, in Malaysia, in Indonesia, somewhere else, but nowhere else. This film is about undocumented immigrant children, a second generation of undocumented immigrants who are living like shadows.​
