Hasti on Skype

Hasti: we go on the boat for the first time and I really didn’t expect to be a small boat and so broken and old. With too many people overcrowded and we had been on the boat for 4 days and after 4 days the boat was broken and we were lost. In the morning the boat broke down completely it went underwater and broke apart. We were in the water from sunrise to afternoon

Judith Reen

Judith: She was out in the ocean for 12 hours before they were rescued by the Australian navy and she recalls opening up, holding onto a 44 gallon drum and opening it up to let a little bit of diesels every now and again to stop sharks from approaching. And she said that for days afterwards the stench of that diesel was in her pours of her skin.

Hasti: 2 years ago when many of us had been transferred to Nauru we didn’t have phones, we didn’t have phones even on the island when we came here the phones were like each person could get to have a ten minutes call every week on a certain time that the securities would tell. Last year there was a new programs so that people can live there and camp

22

05:58

Footage of the camp

Hasti: They built phones and tried to sneak them in. well now almost everyone has a phone. Securities if they see they would take away the phones. Well we cain’t stop people from using mobile phones for 3 years in the centaury can you?

Images of protest from kids

Judith interview

Facebook screen grabs of the Nauru Kids

Judith: The Nauruan Government put an official message that Facebook would be closed down and that there will be penalties for anyone on the island who is found to be using it. You know I guess they just a different generation they just got VPN’s and they worked around it. They knew what to do they knew how to manage it

25

07:04

Mizba: we made a page, the kids from here we made a page called Free the children of Nauru page and we put things like what’s happening in here and share what’s our feeling, we share what’s going on in here, we share what the Australian people from other countries and want them to know how hard it is to live in here

Hast interview with images of the Nauru kids

Hasti: we now have 50 000 people liking it. Well more people now will start to see what is happening to us. If we didn’t have internet on Nauru or we could contract outside world we would be forgotten

28

07:56

Footage of the hospital in Nauru

Hast: We are so tired of everything, I consumed washing detergents, poison. It was burning in my throat and all the way to stomach and had to vomit and every time I swallowed anything it would burn. I know it doesn’t help anyone to do self-harm but I don’t know why I did that and why anyone else does that? I cain’t give reason. Everyone including myself we are getting hopeless we like there is no hope or no way out of this.

29

09:02

Judith: even with lack of capacity, even with poor communication all of those things are given, surely it wouldn’t take three years to process these families and find out adequate information to work out whether they were genuinely in need of protection. It feels like their lives are suspended.

30

09:26

Mizba: I want to have a education, good education and have freedom like every other children from Australia and every country every other teenager from Australia and every other teenager from other countries are having. But still now we are here and its been three years

31

09:48

Images of Nauru residents hanging on fence

Hasti: It’s like the best years of my life are being wasted and ruined. I want Australia to stop this torture. They say that they made actual processing so that they could stop people drowning in the sea. What’s the point of surviving the sea if you die in here?
