See the powerful New Zealand drama Cousins followed by a live Q&A with directors Briar Grace-Smith and Ainsley Gardiner, hosted by Penny Smallacombe, Head of Indigenous at Screen Australia.
Based on Patricia Grace's classic novel, Cousins is a powerful story of 3 cousins who spend a lifetime in search of each other, separated by circumstances yet connected by blood.
Orphaned Mata believes she has no whanau and lives out her lonely childhood in fear and bewilderment. Back home on the land, educated Makareta flees an arranged marriage to study law and begin the search for her missing cousin. She leaves behind cheeky yet dutiful Missy who takes on her role of kaitiaki (guardian) of the land. As the years pass, loss of the family land seems imminent and the women's promise to bring their stolen cousin home seems more unlikely than ever, until a chance encounter changes everything.
