This free film screening is presented as part of our Matariki celebrations.

Three cousins. Three lives. Separated by circumstances, yet bound together by blood.

When a Maaori staff member at the Mercy Home recognises Mata as a member of the Pairama clan, Mata is allowed to spend the summer with her 'grandparents'. Following a train journey to Rotorua, she meets her Aunt Gloria and cousins Missy and Makareta, who expose her to her Maaori culture and heritage.
