Description Follows one man's journey into the complexities of manhood, love and his battle to hold onto the ones he's lost. Set against a backdrop of the almost deserted Reinga township, audiences enter Whiti's magical and sometimes nightmarish world - a world of tango puoro, ancient battles, patupaiarehe (fairies), prophetic visions and miracle healings. This si the story of a man on a quest for redemption - for himself, his koro and his sleepy hometown.
