About

In recent times New Zealanders have engaged in battle over who we are and what we would like our country to be, and documentary film has been in the thick of it. From the picket lines of industrial conflict to the occupied ground of Maori land rights campaigns, from the stormy skirmishes of women's liberation to disputed histories of the New Zealand Wars or the New Right revolution a century later, the filmmakers have been there, documenting the action and deliberately or inadvertently helping forge a sense of national identity. They have been there, too, chronicling the work of our artists and poets, our musicians and Kiwiana exponents, as they struggle to express the meaning of a life in Aotearoa.

Observations is a series of dispatches from the front, commentaries on the fray from an admittedly partisan reporter who is both critic and filmmaker himself.
