31 Days Film:

Appeared at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival
With documentaries such as HEIDI FLEISS: HOLLYWOOD MADAM and KURT & COURTNEY, British filmmaker Nick Broomfield created some of the most discussed and provocative non-fiction films of recent years. In GHOSTS, Broomfield melds documentary immediacy with dramatic narrative to expose the exploitation of illegal immigrants in Europe and recount the tragic story of the death of 23 Chinese migrants in 2004. Ai Qin Lin - herself an illegal immigrant - brings authenticity to her portrayal of a single mother who pays $25,000 to be smuggled into the UK.
