Taniwha

Overview

Tama, a young Māori boy, finds himself in a magical forest filled with cheeky spirits and thundering gods. He is welcomed by a group of carefree teens who guide him through their world of fun and adventure, promising a life of freedom as long as he follows the one rule: don’t go near the water for risk of being taken by the Taniwha.
