Two Guitars

To Speak To The Present, You Must Acknowledge The Past…
Mark and Matthew are two Māori men aspiring to be musicians. Mark is doing it the hard way as a gigging muso, while Matthew is in a corporate job lacking the confidence to make the jump. When a pānui is released calling for Māori musicians they both apply but are turned away because they don’t fit the strict criteria. In the same position, they decide to work together to secure the gig.

Two Guitars is a musical journey that examines the third generation of Māori who have grown up without te reo and tikanga and find themselves lost. After all, it only takes three generations to lose a language.
