Washday
2022, Maori. Directed by Kath Akuhata-Brown.
As her father turns his car into a water pump, a little girl transforms into a force of nature.
Inspired by an ancient Māori story in which nature intermingles with a child’s love, Washday depicts – with tremendous sensitivity and compassion – a grieving father and daughter coming to terms with a significant death in 1960s New Zealand.
