At first I thought this was rather fascinating, but if you have a questioning personality you will start having questions. Questions that doesn't seem to have answers, at least not in this documentary which makes it feel rather biased. So I looked it up.
This resignation syndrome only happens to asylum seekers during the asylum processing and for decades it only happened in Sweden. In cases where the children have been separated from their parents they quickly recover in 1-2 days. The other known "cure" is giving them asylum. Supervised children have been found eating during the night. The more media attention it got, the more people suddenly had it. There's no scientific explanation.
This is information from Regeringskansliet (state commissioned report), Filter (a journalistic paper) and Uppdrag Granskning (an investigative journalistic program on state television) in Sweden. It's not some kind of right-wing foreigner-hating conspiracy. I think that if you're desperate enough and really want to get asylum, lying is the least of your worries and people working with asylum seekers don't want to believe they could be lying because questioning victims is a big nono and could probably get you fired.
It's easy to silence any criticism by calling people racist or pretending like there's no problem, but how nice is that towards the children? This documentary is propaganda.
