SPECIAL SCREENING of 'COUSINS'
SPECIAL SCREENING of Briar Grace-Smith's film 'COUSINS'
at Te Raukura ki Kāpiti
Saturday 23 October, 5pm
Based on the 1992 novel of the same name by Patricia Grace, the film follows the journeys of three cousins in their lifelong search for each other. “Cousins is a story about strength and resilience, touching on epic events in the history of Aotearoa ... however, at its heart it is an intimate story, about the theft of a child and her family's lifelong quest to bring her back home to her people," says Grace-Smith.
This is a one-off, final-push fundraiser for our building redevelopment project. All proceeds from ticket sales will go toward this project.
The event will be held under Covid levels one or two, with social distancing and Covid safety measures in place. Tickets may therefore be limited, so booking is essential. Bar service will be available and a refreshment is included in the ticket price.
TICKETS: $30 - available through Eventfinda online; by calling 0800 BUY TIX (0800 289 849); or at the Coastlands Information Desk.
Thanks to Te Raukura ki Kāpiti for their support.
