Loading Docs 2018 - Kārearea | A kārearea named Fern handles the storytelling duties in this child-friendly documentary about New Zealand’s only falcon. Fern (voiced by ex Māori TV newsreader Kimiora Kaire-Melbourne) introduces some of the other kārearea who live at the Marlborough Falcon Trust, then brings out her human friend Diana, who sadly “can’t fly yet”. Fern and Diana meet a group of children and show them the aerobatics of Aotearoa’s only endemic raptor species, while talking about the threats the falcons face. The trust aims to ensure the endangered birds have a future. | NZ On Screen / NZ On Screen | ||
Loading Docs 2018 - The Cube of Truth | Chris Huriwai and Sam La Hood are both world champions in street unicycling. What they do takes courage and confidence — and not just the unicycling. As vegan animal rights activists, they regularly face those who disagree with them, as they form a “cube of truth” with other activists, standing in black, and playing video of animal rights abuses on laptop screens. The pair take the time to explain why they protest — Huriwai’s rural background and their connection to tikanga Māori are key factors — and note that while some take offence, the majority are welcoming. | NZ On Screen / NZ On Screen | ||

Fine/Pai | Melodownz’ feel good hit 'Fine' finds a new voice in te reo Māori, as 'Pai'. Proud Avondale native Bronson Price, aka Melodownz, found reconnection through being part of web series Waiata Anthems. The process of singing in te reo took him back to his marae and maunga — and to his tūrangawaewae (the place where you are from) for the first time. With the expert translation of Hana Mereraiha (Ngāi Tahu, Tainui, Te Arawa, Taranaki), hip hop track 'Fine' hits the same notes as before, but with all new vibrations. Melodownz rerecorded his song about pretending everything is okay for Waiata's fifth episode. | NZ On Screen / NZ On Screen | |
Loading Docs 2018 - She Speeds | Brooke Clarkson races stock cars — a rare female in a male-dominated motorsport. After growing up watching her dad and uncle race, taking to the track herself seemed only natural. In this short documentary, Clarkson and her family are interviewed about the challenges she’s faced to get to the top, from her mother’s concerns, to outsiders arguing that girls shouldn’t be racing — they'll just get hurt. Now, at only 18 years old, she is racing one of the top stock cars in the country. The soundtrack includes ‘She Speeds’ — the classic track from Dunedin band Straitjacket Fits. | NZ On Screen / NZ On Screen |

James Wilkie | WILKIE, JAMES (1844-99) was born at Nelson. His father, William Wilkie (1814-91) was born in Scotland. He arrived in Nelson from New South Wales (1842) and was a storekeeper and the principal founder of The Colonist. James Wilkie imbibed radical notions from his father and A. Saunders (q.v.), and had a distinguished career at Nelson College (where he was one of the first pupils enrolled). Intending to follow a business career, he gained a knowledge of book-keeping and accountancy. In 1865 he went to the West Coast goldfields and opened a store at Cobden, but returned to take charge of his father's business. As mineowner on the West Coast he was one of the first to employ steam power. He leased the Brunner mine, and conveyed coal in barges to Greymouth. At this time he had several stores and engaged in gold buying. Wilkie was elected M.P.C. for Motueka in the sixties, but did not take his seat. When quartz was discovered he conveyed machinery to Reefton; he engaged in the timber business, and finally was an overseer on railway contracts. He represented Grey in the Nelson Provincial Council (1870-72). Moving to Canterbury, he was surveyor to the Oxford road board and then to the Ashburton county council. He carried out the drainage on Longbeach station and advocated the construction of water races. For a while he edited the Ashburton Guardian. Later Wilkie was engaged constructing bridges on the Masterton-Opaki railway and the Gear Co.'s wharf at Petone. While again on the West Coast store-keeping and mining he was invited to run an independent newspaper at Reefton to oppose the activities of the sharebrokers. Several law cases followed. Wilkie afterwards joined the Evening Press (Wellington), of which he was editor when it ceased publication (1894). He then became a political correspondent at Wellington. He was a vigorous writer, with a fine grasp of colonial politics. For some time he was a member of the conciliation board in Wellington. He died on 8 Feb 1899. Nelson Coll. Reg.; Parlry Record; The Press, 9 May 1896; Evening Post, 9 Feb 1899. | Volume 2, page 257 |
