“Initially I went to watch this movie with the point of view of what it was like being a minority race in that time and if it still correlates to today. The short answer is yes, itu0026#39;s an unseen underbelly in todays New Zealand but behind closed doors and even in pockets of social media platforms you get the gist that people although not all still have something against the minority race. Iu0026#39;m Maori, an indeginous (yet soon may not be) New Zealander and everything in this movie hit and resonated with me and that ultimate question who am I could not have been writ better, it hit hard, I cried I laughed, an angry voice finally heard, this movie done this for me. I felt eyes looking at me as I walked of the cinema, looking at me in a different light as if this shed light on what itu0026#39;s like being Maori colonized by a western view point. This movie had some wit to it like itu0026#39;s characters and I can only imagine that entire ensemble were all on board and the direction and storyline and within it the subtle storytelling to give this movie the best shot all aligned. Julian Chur my maori, made me cry bloody bugger 😂”
