The documentary focuses on the forest region of Te Urewera, where the Tūhoe indigenous people are fighting to rebuild and claim their rights. For the past 150 years, the relationship between the Tūhoe Maori tribe and the New Zealand government has been defined by longstanding grievances about the severe colonisation experiences such as illegal land confiscations and the devastating consequences of scorched earth policies. This film captures a period of change and tremendous foresight, the Tūhoe are negotiating an apology and settlement from the Crown, and constructing an architectural gem of a community centre using radically sustainable methods. Tradition and environmentalism are brought together, and the film gives us a stirring depiction of Indigenous pride. This is a film about past and future, tradition and modernity. Most of all, however, it’s about the grandest hopes, and what it takes to fulfill them. 580 Verzio Film Festival Submission 655 Documentary films 942 |2ddc |cHDD 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6FL_RECORD_4261_000000000000000 |70 |8FL |9152501FL |bFL |d2021-11-04 |l0 |oFL Record 4261 |pHU_OSA_00005985.mp4 |r2021-11-04 |w2021-11-04 |yDIGIFILM |zAccess Copy, MP4 format |cAudio Visual 920 01 yYgbG2X2 966 True |bHU_OSA_00005985 |cDigitally Anywhere / With Registration
