For decades, thousands of children passed through New Zealand's state care institutions. Many experienced abuse, neglect, violence, and the lasting effects of being separated from their families and culture.
In this documentary, survivor Hohepa Taiaroa returns to the institutions that shaped his childhood. Together, we walk the grounds, revisit the memories, and explore a chapter of New Zealand's history that should never be forgotten.
This film is dedicated to every survivor of New Zealand's state care system.
May your courage continue to inspire us all.
