Subject: MAORI IN FILMS; NATIONAL IDENTITY AND THE CINEMA. NEW ZEALAND; WHALE RIDER (NZ/GG, Niki Caro, 2002); ONCE WERE WARRIORS (NZ, Lee Tamahori, 1994)
Summary: Whale rider and Once were warriors portray families who struggle to reconcile their Maori identity with life in twentieth-century Aotearoa/New Zealand. The two movies mirror one another in so far as the former features a Maori chieft struggling to prevent the loss of Maori culture within his rural tribal group while the latter follows a nuclear family struggling to reconcile its urban identity with its rural Maori roots. Both movies pit an image of the city as an urban ghetto associated with 'social deprivation and lack of traditional culture' against that of the country as site of 'Maori cultural identity and salvation' (Spooner 2001: 95). The task of reconciling both falls to women who must undergo symbolical and/or actual death before being reborn as leaders. Though both movies conclude on a hopeful note, the path to reconciliation they suggest points 'to a contradiction which continues unresolved in practical reality' (Webster 1998: 39) and fails to address issues inherent in the concept of Maoritanga'

Summary: "Despite the challenges arising from a limited population size and the difficulty of obtaining adequate funding, the film and television industries of New Zealand have been the source of significant creative achievement and profound cultural influence. Charting their emergence and subsequent development through five decades, New Zealand Film and Television: Institution, Industry and Cultural Change examines these two increasingly vibrant cultural and creative industries. Whilst there is a growing body of academic work on the film and television productions which have originated in New Zealand, relatively little exists that examines the specific cultural concerns, institutional objectives, policy directives, and industry practices that have shaped these productions. New Zealand Film and Television: Institution, Industry and Cultural Change aims to fill this gap."-BOOK BLURB

Summary: This article explores the development of New Zealand cinema as one of unease, as reflective of the disintegration of the utopian dream inherent in the founding settler era. It examines three films from consecutive decades, Ngati (Barclay, 1987), Once Were Warriors (Tamahori, 1994) and Whale Rider (Caro, 2002), and compares representations of Maori as illustrative of Pakeha (white settler) anxieties about Maori/Pakeha relations. It argues that while Ngati and Once Were Warriors contain elements of postcolonial critique, Whale Rider returns to a model of segregation, invoking spirituality of Maori as nostalgia for a lost utopian past. -- Abstract
