Girmit and Girmiteers

This video is the story about Fiji Indians. They were brought to Fiji in the late 1800's and early 1900's as indentured labourers. In those days Fiji was a British Colony. The five year indenture contract was called Girmit by the Indians who made the journey on high seas in the hope of a better life for themselves and their descendants. Most of this video was produced in 2001 - it also reflects the technology that was available at that time.
