Observations: Studies in New Zealand Documentary


Add your own review!

Overview

From the picket lines of industrial conflict and the occupied ground of Maori land-rights campaigns to the stormy skirmishes of women’s liberation and disputed histories of the New Zealand Wars, this discussion describes how documentary filmmakers have helped forge a sense of national identity among native New Zealanders. The evocation maintains that these dedicated documentarians have also carried on preserving the work of the country’s artists, poets, and Kiwiana exponents as they struggle to express the meaning of life in their home country. Comprised as a series of dispatches from the front line of filmmaking, this record highlights an adventurous art form, celebrating its role in a colorful country’s milestones.
