In this moving drama set in the poorest urban neighborhood in Auckland, the daughter of a noble Maori family tries to rescue her family from alcoholism, physical abuse, and despair. Rena Owen shines in her role as the sometimes exasperatingly forgiving mother, Beth, working with a fantastic, albeit painful, script.

Grade: A.
