Documentary / Family
An interview-based documentary series that explores and illuminates the world of Turi-Deaf Maori in the current day. Over the course of five episodes, the fifteen interviewees from across Ngati Turi discuss their experiences, struggles and triumphs.

Tangata Turi discuss their experiences within Aotearoa's education system, and the establishment and development of Ruaumoko Marae, founded as the Turi community's own marae.
Waitangi Day is the backdrop to a discussion about the urgent need for trilingual interpreters: those who can translate between NZSL, Te Reo Maori and English.
Wahine Turi Maori discuss their lives in connection to Ngati Turi and Te Ao Maori more broadly, their roles both assigned and chosen, and their hopes and goals for the future.
Societal barriers affect tangata Turi every day. This episode asks how these barriers have arisen, what might be done to overcome them, and how technology could be of assistance.
A look at the younger generations of tangata Turi, the choices they are making within and for their community, with particular focus on intersectionality and the experience of rainbow youth.

One day, a handsome alien falls from the sky when Daishi was practicing with Miyako, surrounded by his friends and father (who is employed at an old factory). The handsome alien named Goo, after escaping a mass genocide somewhere in Earth’s binary star, warns Daishi and his friends that Earth is in danger. Then, a giant lizard-like monster who is after Goo, attacks Daishi’s household. That’s when Goo’s Mode Shifter begins to emit light, radiating Daishi. His body is completely transformed by a special protector. The transformed Daishi charges at the monster while still in his wheelchair.

Sam begins with a disclaimer – he is merely an actor – but the story of Cook, and the impact he has had on the Pacific in the 250 years since his first voyage, has always fascinated him.
