Aroview: Endearing Kiwi drama about an ambitious teenager who aspires to be a car mechanic despite the hurdles - which include her protective brother who has inherited the family motor workshop, and her Down Syndrome disability.

Taking control of her own life, she works towards her goals, starting by teaming up with her school friend to work on getting a car fixed up in time for the local burnout competition.

A joyful film about independence with a remarkable performance from lead Libby Hunsdale, set on the sunny Kapiti Coast, and featuring tunes written and recorded by Seb Hunter, who also stars.
