Race Relations abound

An adaptation of Albert Wendt's book to screen. The movie was shot in Wellington, New Zealand and Samoa. Many clichés of racial problems - late night pogroms, intermarriage, social differences are examined.

Acting and screen play are a little trite; but the story holds to the book well. Some scenes are better portrayed in the movie than in the book.

There is a great play of the difficulties of integrating from a Pacific Island culture to metropolitan Wellington - even when this film was made.

The film could well be compared with latter race classics from New Zealand - Broken English and Once were Warriors.

It is many years since this film was reduced, I have tried to review it from memory.
