Wairarapa Film Festival - a great weather-proof event!
The Masterton programme for the Wairarapa Film Festival is being presented at Regent 3 Cinemas, Masterton District Library, Kuranui and Wairarapa College, on 25 – 28th May 2023. There will be a mix of in-cinema screenings with guest speakers, in-school rangatahi filmmaking workshops, and a free whānau-friendly screening at your local library.
We are so lucky to live in a region where local film and filmmakers are valued. We have world-class filmmakers who hail from this region – Jemaine Clement, Barry Barclay, Vincent Ward, and Ramai Haywood are just a few examples. We also have world-class filmmakers who come to this region to help tell our stories, such as Dame Gaylene Preston.
Check out the full programme here and of course online:

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
