Champion exceptional story tellers to create enduring taonga for Aotearoa
Te Rautaki Māori 2018-2021 celebrates the unique and distinctive culture of Aotearoa that differentiates our national cinema and champions Māori film and filmmakers in partnership with the Māori film industry to Aotearoa and the world.
The work to date of the Rautaki Māori has supported a range of funding initiatives that have supported these aspirations.
