About This Item
In 1830, British lay preacher and ex-soldier Thomas Munro (Guy Pearce) docked at a New Zealand settlement, looking to assume leadership of a congregation of colonists. He'd find himself challenged by the virulent racism his flock held for the indigenous people, as well as becoming the focal point of intertribal hostilities when he intercedes to rescue young Maori Rangimai (Tioreore Ngatai-Melbourne). Lee Tamhori's period adventure-drama co-stars Antonio Te Maioha, Jacqueline McKenzie, Te Kohe Tuhaka. 119 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.
