Film (Trailer) – 2012

PG
Parental Guidance
There’s more to me than just spud picking.
– Turei (Stan Walker)
..a smart, finely-observed, heartfelt drama of good tunes and decent humour against an authentic local setting.
– Russell Baillie in a four star NZ Herald review, 6 February 2013
The script is so good – it’s definitely the main reason I wanted to get involved.
– Stan Walker, on why he got on board the project
So much of the film really happened. I really did lean back on a lot of memory.
– Writer/director Tearepa Kahi, in an NZ Herald interview, 1 February 2013
