Denise Piper Reporter from Whangārei Leader

Special votes have seen Labour's Dr Emily Henderson usurp National's Dr Shane Reti for the Whangārei seat - the first time Labour has won Whangārei since 1972. Henderson, a family court lawyer, says she wants to focus on the social wellbeing of Whangārei residents and backs the five major Kia Kaha Northland infrastructure projects. What do you think?

THERE'S STILL TOMORROW.
Italy, subtitles, 2023, Dramatic comedy

Delia lives in Rome in the late 1940s in a working-class community which is slowly but surely rebuilding itself after the war. She shares a small flat with her domineering husband, their three children and her sick father-in-law.

Delia resolutely deals with the daily challenges of family life and has a best friend with whom she shares moments of levity. Delia’s dream though is for her daughter, Marcella to one day have a better life than she does. Delia is resigned to her fate - the good with the bad - until one day a mysterious letter arrives.

"An inspiring story that delights in small victories and the dream of female empowerment." - Screen International
