Interview with “The Haka Party Incident” Director, Katie Wolfe

A three-minute protest staged in 1979 echoes across the decades as a potent indictment of systemic racism and a lens through which to re-examine Aotearoa’s national identity. The Haka Party Incident will be screening at this year's Sydney Film Festival (SFF) on June 10th & 13th (two screenings). 

As suggested by Katie, double feature watching of The Haka Party Incident & Patu!

Check out the video interview.
