About the Festival
The Wairoa Maori Film Festival is a film festival like no other!
We pride ourselves on a laid-back and relaxed energy, a spiritual nourishment both on screen and off. We have a reputation for rich and sincere narratives presented in a gentle and healing space. We give voice to the radical, on-screen presence to the activist, our audiences feel and resonate with the filmmaker's messages.
We are a collaborative space where filmmakers and creatives can connect; short film, documentary and feature dramatic projects have developed over a cup of tea in the marae, and some of these new works will be screening for the first time this year, at our 15th gathering.
Nau Mai! Nau Mai! Haere Mai!
Wairoa Maori Film Festival. A Film Festival Like No Other.
Theme 2020: Kotahitanga - Tino Rangatiratanga - Mana
