The Lion King Reo Māori
6:00 PM, Wednesday 29 June
Nga Purapura
Disney's epic adventure has been reversioned to te reo Māori!
Follow the story of Simba, a feisty lion cub who "just can't wait to be king." Led astray by his ambitious Uncle Scar, Simba adopts a carefree lifestyle with his hilarious companions, Timon and Pumbaa, and forgets his regal responsibilities. But destiny calls and he must decide when the time is right to return to the Pride Lands and reclaim his place in the "Circle of Life"
The Lion King Reo Māori has been reversioned by Matewa Media - Matewa Media is committed to creating a series of content that is known, loved and celebrated throughout the world. By way of association, we are taking iconic Disney films and flipping them into our own to contribute to our collective intention of celebrating Te Reo Māori in all places and spaces.

Ngā Purapura
He Paki Taketake is excited to present TAMA KAIATEA (Astro Kid). A French animated feature film that has been reversioned into te reo Maori at the Maoriland Hub.
This is a gentle sci-fi movie for the whole whanau. A fun adventure on a distant planet!
After his spaceship is destroyed, ten-year-old Wiremu escapes in one pod but his parents flee in another. They get separated from each other. As his rescue capsule lands on a wild and unexplored planet, Wiremu befriends the friendly robot Paki and kooky alien Hiko. Together they adventure through the mysterious planet, discovering its wildlife and beauty but also the dangers that lie beneath!
