STEALING A NATION

Stealing A Nation is an extraordinary film about the plight of the people of the chagos islands in the Indian Ocean - secretly and brutally expelled from their Homeland by British government in the late 1960s and early 1970s, to make way for an American military base. The base, on the main island of Diego Garcia, was a launch pad for the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq.
