  • "The series highlights local issues like domestic violence, dengue fever, diabetes and substance abuse; as well as, lack of employment opportunities for the young, males and females alike. The islanders are portrayed with all their strengths and weaknesses. Describes also the social life and customs of the islanders. Through it all, one glimpses the seemingly idyllic natural beauty and tranquility of the island."
  • "RAN is a six-part Australian drama series, which tells the story of a white registered nurse, working in a health clinic, on Masig Island, in the Torres Strait. The island is home to just under 300 people; and it is one of seventeen island communities governed by individual local councils. The drama begins with Helen's return to the island, after attending her mother's funeral on mainland Australia. Receiving no warm welcome home on arrival at the island's airstrip, Helen sets off to the clinic. She arrives to find everything in chaos, and sets about restoring some kind of order, and in that time viewers meet some of the other principal characters in RAN. As every episode unfolds, the various island characters make an appearance; and, Helen confronts the reality of her doubtful future on the island, whatever strong connections she might have to the place she considers home."
