Session 06: Pure NZ Rua

2h 18m Documentary 2026

Nine New Zealand films, and every one a reminder of why we do this. Travel from a hidden North Island gorge to a remote Himalayan village, from Takaka Hill’s limestone cliffs to a small coastal town where three generations of women have built their lives around the sea. There are kayakers, cyclists, packrafters, and a grassroots movement that started with seven friends on bikes. Stories about wild places and the people who love them, protect them, explore them, and share them with others.
