Using Film to Explore Ideas with University Students Around Intergenerational Social Connection
Intergenerational connection (IC) has been posited to mitigate the effects of social isolation and loneliness in older people. Using the film Manawaroa: Still Going Strong, we explored nursing and health sciences’ students’ views about IC, considering themes of loneliness and social connectedness among older people in Aotearoa New Zealand. Thirteen students participated in four online focus groups and data was analyzed using thematic analysis. Fo…
In conversation with Stallone Vaiaoga-Ioasa
Becoming a feature film director is a privilege available to only a handful of people, no matter where in the world they live. In Oceania, access to filmmaking is arguably more constrained because the market conditions under which commercial films are produced do not favour small, geographically dispersed and linguistically distinct communities. Opportunities to make publicly funded, critically acclaimed Pacific films in metropolitan centres like…
Cowboy contradictions
Indigenous scholars have recently focused on the Hollywood western and the figure of the cinematic cowboy as particularly potent sites of identification in twentieth century Oceania. Curiously, neither the genre nor the icon figures prominently in current film scholarship about the Pacific. One of the reasons is that westerns have been considered particularly paradigmatic of cinema's imperial legacy. The genre's tendency to reaffirm the dominance…
Persistent primitivisms

This article examines how the criticism generated (and sometimes not generated) in academic studies and among film critics reflects persistent discourses of primitivism. Even politically progress…
The Influence of Fiction and Cinematic Excess on the Factual

Nevertheless, both critically acclaimed and populist films form an integral part of the mediascape within which more contemporary factual films by and about Pacific communities are situated. In many cases the dialectic between Hollywood and contemporary performance in th…

Pacific camp
How camp has been defined, to whom it ‘belongs’, its politics and its pleasures have been the subject of vigorous debate since the 1960s. Although the bulk of discourse on camp has been associated with queer scholarship, camp is a useful framework for looking at Pacific Island popular culture in Aotearoa New Zealand. Not only are camp’s constituent elements of incongruity, theatricality, humor, irony and aestheticism found in Pacific Island broad…
