TUKUA is an arts-and-cultural panel show that explores an intergenerational response through a Māori lens. The panel is 75-year-old arts activist and author, Ngāhuia Te Awekōtuku, Gen X sculptor Brett Graham, and 24-year-old standup comedian, Kura Turuwhenua.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
