Whale Rider creator Witi Ihimaera throws himself in the deep end of a full-immersion Māori language course that tests him to his limit.
Whale Rider creator Witi Ihimaera throws himself in the deep end of a full-immersion Māori language course that tests him to his limit.
As he prepares to go back to school at the age of 80, Witi Ihimaera reveals the personal reason he's decided it is finally time to learn te reo Māori. Will it sustain him during the tough year ahead?
Witi and his hoa akomanga go on a class trip, where he rediscovers old connections and finds he can’t escape his most famous character: the tohorā.
Witi bore witness to famous moments in the revitalisation of te reo Māori, but will his depth of knowledge and mātauranga help him overcome his frustration and difficulties learning the language?
On a visit to a kōhanga reo, Witi creates a new story for the tamariki—one with a hidden meaning. Will it be acceptable for the rumaki assessment he needs to pass?
One final maunga stands ahead: Witi needs to stand and speak te reo Māori for an hour. Can he overcome the taniwha that have held him back in the past? And what is the future for te reo?
