Let's Celebrate Pacific Island Screen Successes!

Let's come together over drinks and snacks to reflect on the stories from the largest Polynesian city in the world - Tāmaki Makaurau.

Hailing from Tonga, presenter and journalist/director John Pulu will lead us through a discussion on the Pacific lens.

With panelists Director Vea Mafile'o (For My Father's Kingdom), Director/Producer Crystal Vaega (Fresh TV, The Coconet.TV, Tagata Pasifika, Māori Television, The Panthers) and Director/Producer Stallone Vaiaoga-Ioasa (Three Wise Cousins, Hibiscus & Ruthless, Take Home Pay, Mama's Music Box), it is sure to be an insightful discussion.

We'll talk about why it's important for Pacific people to tell their own stories, cultural safety, how partnerships function with intellectual property, equity and collaborations, and more.

Free event for FAI members and friends.
Refreshments and nibbles provided. Registration required.
