“Stateless asks important questions about where and to whom we belong, what constitutes home, and what our moral obligation is to one another. Unfortunately, it doesn’t give its refugees the chance to answer for themselves” (Fontoura 2020). The Australian mini-series which aired on Netflix in 2020 spans six episodes and focuses on the daily struggles and interactions at a detention centre for migrants and refugees seeking political asylum in Australia. The socio-political message of the series is the stateless identity characters like Ameer and his daughter Mina, Rosna, Javad and his family, and Farid have been subjected to while inhabiting this indefinite intermediate zone that exists between their home country (they have fled from) and the host country they await residency for.
