Appreciate that the subtitles are aesthetically place instead of just down at the bottom. It also frames the scenes really well. Excited to watch this. You don't often see films depicting Māori culture and perspectives.
This looks like an incredible well executed and important film. Congratulations to all involved. I am so glad to see that native tongue is used. Brilliant edit. Looking forward to seeing this film. Never surrender your treaty. 👊🏽
The truth must be told!! It's so refreshing to see more and more native cultures sharing their truth. Their side of the story. We need it to be told and taught and passed down. And THEY deserve to be heard.
The truth must be told: News 24 headline: "Shock over Maori infant brutality" They have been scalded, burned with cigarettes, raped, had bones broken and been beaten unconscious, sometimes to death. Horrific cases of Maori youngsters - some under two years of age - being tortured, abused and KILLED BY MEMBERS OF THEIR OWN FAMILIES Among the grisly headlines that have dominated the nation's media over recent weeks are stories of a 28-month-old Maori girl in a coma after suffering severe head injuries, a broken arm, cuts, bruises and cigarette burns over most of her body. The toddler's 52-year-old grandmother was being held in prison on assault charges. Police in the central North Island town of Carterton are investigating the death a week ago of 23-month-old Maori girl Hinewaoriki Karaitiana-Matiaha who was sexually abused, scalded with hot liquid and beaten before being taken to hospital by relatives. The child, who was put in the care of her grandmother by the Child, Youth and Family Service after consultations with the toddler's family just short of her second birthday, was dead on arrival at Masterton Hospital late on Sunday, July 23. And last week, a coroner in the east coast town of Tauranga found that two-month-old Marcus Te Hira Grey died from a brain haemorrhage following a severe beating by his father. These cases follow the recent release of a report into the gruesome killing last April of four-year-old James Whakaruru, beaten to death by his stepfather for failing to call him Dad. The stepfather had been jailed once for assaulting the boy, but the youngster endured a lifetime of horrific beatings, despite being under the eye of various child welfare agencies, and his hellish existence went unnoticed. The proportion of extreme cases of brutality towards children among the Maori population - which makes up about 15 percent of New Zealand's 3.8 million citizens - is far higher than for any other ethnic group.
@@tatumergo3931 my comment had nothing to do with conquering. It was purely about having real history told in the way that it happened. Instead of the government’s lying to us about what actually happened.
News headline from the Rotorua Daily Post newspaper: " Child, 2, dies after Rotorua driveway accident, family member steals from doctor trying to save child's life" As hospital staff tried to save the life of a 2-year-old boy run over in a Rotorua driveway, a family member swiped a doctor's two phones and a bank card and went on a spending spree. The child died a short time later but Melissa Herewini had already taken the bank card to four stores in Rotorua and bought alcohol, food, petrol, phone credit and cigarettes.
This looks fantastic. Ever since Temuera Morrison helped introduce me to the Maori in the absolutely timeless "Once Were Warriors" I will watch him and his crew in anything that helps teach me about his astonishing people.
An interesting introduction to the Māori culture. I remember that when the film first came out many people here in Aotearoa New Zealand working in tourism marketing and promoting the country overseas were worried about the potential impact on the tourist industry. Similar to the concern that many Scottish leaders had when Trainspotting came out.
Ka Whawhai Tonu: The Struggle Continues fragmanını izledim ve etkileyici derinliğiyle beni büyüledi. Māori kültürünün zenginliği ve direniş ruhu, her karede canlı bir şekilde hissediliyor. Film, Māori halkının tarih boyunca karşılaştığı zorlukları ve süregelen mücadelesini vurgularken, aynı zamanda onların direniş ve dayanışma ruhunu kutluyor. Her sahne, izleyiciyi Māori kültürünün derinliklerine çekiyor ve onların değerlerine olan saygımı arttırıyor. Bu film, sadece bir belgesel değil, aynı zamanda bir kültürel mirasın ve direnişin destansı anlatımı olarak öne çıkıyor. Kesinlikle izlenmeyi hak ediyor.
I remember as a kid being terrified of geckos because of all the korero I had heard about them, but I also remembered my nanny who knew the bible word for word in te reo and english, she held my hand and walked me through an area where geckos were numerous "I'd even have nightmares about this area" I remember her saying a karakia under her breath and being in awe watching them completely scatter from us, that was a beautiful moment. When she passed her little whare was burned down by her neighbours, what compelled them to do that I'll never know
It's a very good movie about culture. War action and movie of bygone ages. The movie should win an award both in terms of graphics and subject matter. It's a very gripping movie, as it seems from its trailer. I definitely recommend you watch it.
I'd love to support it as a non-expat it looks like a brilliant movie and it's about a part of the world I don't know much about T-T I want it to be released in the West so bad
This gives me goosebumps and teary eyes. If this is the film that the directors were talking about at our Orakau memorial celebrations last year, we were told that some of the actors acted as their ancestors. Has such deep meaning for many of us. He mihi Aroha Ki ngaa whanau o nga tupuna Kua hinga Ki Orakau me Rangiaowhia ❤ (acknowledgements to the families of those who fell at Orakau and Rangiaowhia) for those who are curious, please do take the time to google the history of these places.
Support from Papua New Guinea, the story of European colonisation is the same right across the Pacific. They came in the pretext of church and took our land and destroyed our cultures and societies. We must never forget.
To be fair, the Maori did the same to the Moriori. They hunted animals to extinction and were deforesting the land. At the end of the day, humans will be humans. It's just whoever has the bigger stick.
As an African American let’s just all say, all people of color suffered greatly under western European rule, was it was from the Portuguese, Spanish, the French, the Dutch, the British, later than the Americans, it doesn’t matter, all these people thought they were better, and we were either colonized, or taken into slavery, our languages, our cultures and religions were replaced by theirs, I’m not angry, and hold no grudges, but we should never forget.
@@Its_Just_me_too our cultural/tribal wars existed well before Europeans arrived, this does not give excuse to what Europeans did to the Maoris and the Pacific.
@@xenomorph42 It still happens today my friend. Africans sold into slavery by their own people. Which is why I say that unfortunately, there will always be a dark side to humans. There is never any good excuse for attacking others. Hopefully though, people won't hold it against those today who were not responsible for the past actions of others.
Our country is very small but The British couldn't beat us in war so they settled on a treaty agreement which they used to deceive us and flooded the country with settlers and began to colonize maori and used alcohol and cigarettes to suppress, they also started building facilities for the mentally impared and sent our people there to be tortured and punished for not being British
I met Temuera Morrison this month in Osaka@ Comic Con 2024..signed my Boba Fett, my daughter met Daniel.....I will see this film just to support them and their culture! Glad the world will get to see their story!
“Every house divided against itself shall not stand.” While we are so busy dividing ourselves along tribal and ideological lines, other global entities are vying for and gradually controlling our home.
Yeah, I hope this movie shows the truth of the past, and doesn't make it look like the Britihs are all evil and the Maori are perfect. History is dark, but we can't blame only one party in this case. Good Bible quote!
@Matteo-1 The Maori were vicious warriors and pirates. But let's not pretend the British were the good guys in anyway whatsoever. There is a reason everyone from the US to China hated them for a very long time.
@@TheLastKentuckyIrregular9524 You can't just put all British into one single group. Many of the first settlers were good people who came to trade and bring the gospel. Of course, due to the immense power of Britain this also brought manipulative people who stole and killed for their own gain. Like many Maori were peaceful and loving, many of the British were too. As well, there were hostile Maori and hostile British.
Love seeing movies like this come out of NZ and one day i would love to see something on the Māori vs Moriori but i am sure from a historical perspective it would be very hard to find knowledge on.
Māori feared lizards (skinks and geckos), and to a lesser extent tuatara. Lizards were seen as representatives of Whiro, the god of darkness, evil and death. When green geckos (moko kākāriki) lifted their heads and chattered in a sound believed to be laughter, it was seen as a bad omen.
@@rabidL3M0NS interesting ideas, considering most of maori was converted to christianity by the start of the nz land wars its probably safe to say the only god they worshipped at this point was the same one as the hebrew folk...🤷♂
When I watch the movie, I get excited like I'm playing a game! The events are very gripping and if you like this type of production, this movie is for you! !
Im sorry but the one thing pulling me out of the fantasy is the young people. Their māori accent in Te Reo sounds like how they would talk today. The broccoli haircuts on the boys.They need mannerism and dialect coaches on these kinds of movies. Otherwise it looks great
This looks amazing! I cant wait to watch this and would love to see a similar movie about the French conquest of Tahiti in the same fashion, because the Tahitians put up a hell of a fight!
Whoa whoa chill my friend bcuz The Revenant was hella gangsta & dope af 💯💯💯 Leo & Hardy killed it. They both was spectacular real talk yo 💯💯💯 Movie was sick friend. But I won’t front tho, this movie looks hella sick as well. I can’t wait! I just hope it’s not another lame ass movie like Pocahontas with Colin Farrell.

These native tribes still complaining about European colonisation cracks me up. Long before we came, you were fighting and dominating eachother, possessing that which was not yours, this is a human trait, not a race one. Move on.
@@terejosh13 member of the federally recognized Miami tribe. I have a proud lineage of fighting the Americans. My great grandfather led the military at wabash. We fought well and won several battles but lost the war due to tribalism. The fact you are an ignorant-racist-leftist who looks at history as a zero sum game (opinion of a 5 year old) is more common than almost anything else.
@@terejosh13 I am a member of the miamis. I know my leniage and am proud of my ancestors fight against the Americans. We lost. Our way was not sustainable. If it wasn’t the Americans who conquered, it would have been someone else
@@terejosh13 Lots of imposters in these types of comment sections. Over Waitangi weekend, I was surprised to read half the comment sections from so called "Māori" in favour of David Seymour's proposal. These folks are truly obsessed...but I'm flattered none the less.

The child, who was put in the care of her grandmother by the Child, Youth and Family Service after consultations with the toddler's family just short of her second birthday, was dead on arrival at Masterton Hospital late on Sunday, July 23. And last week, a coroner in the east coast town of Tauranga found that two-month-old Marcus Te Hira Grey died from a brain haemorrhage following a severe beating by his father. These cases follow the recent release of a report into the gruesome killing last April of four-year-old James Whakaruru, beaten to death by his stepfather for failing to call him Dad. The stepfather had been jailed once for assaulting the boy, but the youngster endured a lifetime of horrific beatings, despite being under the eye of various child welfare agencies, and his hellish existence went unnoticed. The proportion of extreme cases of brutality towards children among the Maori population - which makes up about 15 percent of New Zealand's 3.8 million citizens - is far higher than for any other ethnic group.
Another taonga can't wait to view
Finally!!! Been waiting for something historically based on NZ Maori's. Way overdue!

Cliff, so nice to see how you succeed in your life. Good luck my friend, telling the story of your people. Aroha Nui from Rapa Nui
Woke Cinema/Movies. Ignoring the actual events of history in favour of a children’s story.
Yes!! I can't wait for this. This looks beautiful.
These native tribes still complaining about European colonisation cracks me up. Long before we came, you were fighting and dominating eachother, possessing that which was not yours, this is a human trait, not a race one. Move on.
As a native American this is correct. We were every bit as warlike and lost. The fact people are still whining about it is astonishing.
@@HusGoosethe fact that you are posing as Native person is hilarious 😂
@@terejosh13 member of the federally recognized Miami tribe. I have a proud lineage of fighting the Americans. My great grandfather led the military at wabash. We fought well and won several battles but lost the war due to tribalism. The fact you are an ignorant-racist-leftist who looks at history as a zero sum game (opinion of a 5 year old) is more common than almost anything else.
@@terejosh13 I am a member of the miamis. I know my leniage and am proud of my ancestors fight against the Americans. We lost. Our way was not sustainable. If it wasn’t the Americans who conquered, it would have been someone else
@@terejosh13 Lots of imposters in these types of comment sections. Over Waitangi weekend, I was surprised to read half the comment sections from so called "Māori" in favour of David Seymour's proposal.
These folks are truly obsessed...but I'm flattered none the less.

Love to see our country on the big screen and a big mihi to our friends around the globe for their positive comments.
I really wish you continued success, I really like these kinds of movies.
I hope this film will be available in the U.S. or for online streaming.
Not a single movie truly captures what the whenua once was before you know who arrived.
Definitely watching this!
