Tainui Stephens is an independent producer, director, writer and sometimes presenter. He started his broadcasting career with Television New Zealand’s Koha in 1984. Tainui has been responsible for bringing many Māori stories to screen.
I think the principal challenge facing Māori film and television is to assume control over itself [...] because of the quality and calibre of the product, because of the power of the vision.
