Where is my refuge?
How does it feel drifting in a small boat on an uncertain sea?
Boarding on a small boat, this journey will bring you back to Hong Kong’s history as the port of first asylum declared in 1979, including the stories about the former Chi Ma Wan Detention Centre. Any chance to land on an uninhabited island to trace the ruins? A trip full of uncertainty…
As the coastline comes into view, hear and feel the stories of those who crossed the sea in search of safety, and reflect on what it means to arrive and seek refuge for a stable life.
