Mārama
The film
1859. When a young Māori woman is summoned from New Zealand to North Yorkshire, she uncovers her horrific colonial heritage and is compelled to confront and destroy the titled Englishman who devastated her family.
The real review
Ariāna Osborne carries this as Mary, a Māori woman uncovering her horrific colonial heritage in 1859 England, in a film most people really liked. The story, which sees her compelled to confront the titled Englishman Nathaniel Cole, is praised for its originality and power, while the visuals and acting are considered flawless. Toby Stephens’ performance as the villainous Nathaniel, however, is widely panned, and a vocal few found the pacing a bit uneven.
