Filmed and set in Melbourne during the month of the Hungry Ghost Festival, when the Vietnamese community venerate their dead, this four-part drama series event from Matchbox Pictures premieres over four consecutive nights, Monday 24 August – Thursday 27 August at 9:30pm on SBS. When a tomb in Vietnam is accidentally opened on the eve of the Hungry Ghost Festival, a vengeful spirit is unleashed, bringing the dead with him. As these spirits wreak havoc across the Vietnamese-Australian community in Melbourne, reclaiming lost loves and exacting revenge, young woman May Le (Văn-Davies) must rediscover her true heritage and accept her destiny to help bring balance to a community still traumatised by war.

Fictoc¡iticism is a term that has been taken trp in Australian academic contexts to describe writing that is concemed with an interplay of writing 'positions' and with the specific or local contexts that enable the production of these'positions,. Fictocritical Sentences primarily enacts a fictocritical mapping of local cultural events. The 'events' are essentially concemed with crime and trauma in Adelaide. They include the disappearance of the three Beaumont children in 1966, the 'Family'murders of the 1980s, the 'Truro'murders of the L9z0s and the ,reforming, of 'c¡iminal' and 'neglected' boys cn the Fitzjames, a hulk moored off the metropolitan coast of Adelaide, during the 1880s. The fictocritical treatment of these events simulates their unresolved or traumatised condition. Differences between'invention'and 'explication' matter most at times of personal and public trauma.
