River Queen
“With darkness all around, only the heart can see where the forest meets the river.”
AdventureWar
In 1860s New Zealand, a young Irish woman desperately trying to find her son finds herself caught on both sides of the lines during the wars between Māori tribes and the British colonial army.
VIBE
A sweeping historical drama that feels both intimate and epic. It captures the beauty of New Zealand's landscapes while exploring the complex, often tragic, human cost of colonial conflict and divided loyalties.
