Ngāti

Directed by Barry Barclay

With Judy McIntosh, Ross Girven, Tuta Ngarimu Tatami, Iranui Haig and Tawai Moana

Set in and around the fictional town of Kapua in 1948, Ngāti is the story of a Māori community. The film comprises three narrative threads: a boy, Ropata, is dying of leukaemia; the return of a young Australian doctor, Greg, and his discovery that he has Māori heritage; and the fight to keep the local freezing works open.
