“Stay sharp! Otherwise I’m done for…” Madman Films has revealed the main official trailer for a fun new New Zealand movie called The Mountain, marking the directorial debut of New Zealand actress Rachel House (from Hunt for the Wilderpeople and Thor: Ragnarok and tons of other films). After opening in NZ back in March (first teaser here), it’s set to premiere at the Sydney Film Festival in June for its Australian premiere. The film explores the journey of three young people as they seek solace under the watchful gaze of the Taranaki mountain (aka “Taranaki Maunga” – see Google Maps) and companionship in the spirit of adventure. Starring Elizabeth Atkinson (Te Atiawa, Ngāti Mutunga, Ngāti Toa, Ngāti Koata, Ngāti Tama, Kāi Tahu), Reuben Francis, and Terence Daniel (Ngāti Kahungunu, Raukawa ki Wharepūhunga, Kuki Airani – Aitutaki). They are also joined by Troy Kingi (Te Arawa, Ngāpuhi, Te Whānau-ā-Apanui) (Muru), Byron Coll, Fern Sutherland, and Sukena Shah. I’m all about this! I want to see it so bad! Looks funny and fresh. Hopefully it’ll show up in the US sooner than later, in the meantime catch the latest trailer below. // Continue Reading ›
