Who are we, to tell their stories?
A German film student travels to New Zealand to authentically capture Maori culture. Europeans and New Zealanders he meets all have an opinion about the Indigenous people and their relationship with "Pakeha" - the "white" population of Aotearoa (New Zealand). "We take good care of the Maori", they say. At the same time many Maori are homeless or build roads for the post colonial inhabitants. An Indigenous professor denounces that Maori often do not get a voice themselves. "Reorganise your lens", she suggests the director. And so the story takes an unexpected turn.
