 Synopsis

Ralph Hotere (Te Aupōuri) is regarded as New Zealand's greatest living artist. This documentary by Merata Mita provides insight into the man, by way of his art. Hotere remains famously tight lipped throughout but there are interviews with friends and art commentators alongside rare footage of Hotere working. Set to a background of improvisational jazz and poetry reading by then wife, Cilla McQueen, Mita's impressionistic documentary offers a viewing of Hotere's extensive body of work and a perspective on his world.
