He Ao Kotahi shows how our indigenous cousins’ art and culture has evolved and the lengths they go to ensure their art survives in the 21st century. We do this through the eyes and ears of prominent Maori Artists who venture into worlds that are foreign but familiar. Our first He Ao Kotahi sees Master carver Katz Maihi travel to Palestine.

The HAKT website intends to document and preserve culture in the way that we do best, by storytelling. So through an indigenous lens, using an indigenous crew, we make a “different” documentary series. It’s a silent consciousness, it’s a “knowing” and it’s an understanding of why things are the way they are and allowing the organic processes to happen but having the skills to ensure a great story will emerge.
