Mauri is a 1988 New Zealand film directed by Merata Mita.[1] [2] It is a significant work of indigenous filmmaking, and of New Zealand filmmaking in general.[3]
A woman lives in a basic dwelling with fire in the hearth where she cooks. We get an insight in the family in this saga, where troubles are met with kindness, except by the British or those that have gone across to their side.[2] [3]
