Daniel
Daniel, based on true events, this intense, emotional drama speaks of a country where homophobia and intolerance are on the rise and it takes a brave soul to oppose it. Something You Said Last Night is a funny and unique portrayal of the trans experience portrayed through twenty-something writer Renata as she embarks on a family holiday.

Punch, Audience Award nominee, a coming of age drama about 17-year-old Jim, who is training for his first professional fight when he befriends gay Maori teen, Whetu, who’s being bullied by the community.
