Pike River

“Pike River could have been a tough watch. But an excep­tional script and lead per­form­ances, and some very smart dir­ect­ing choices, have instead delivered a warm, human and enga­ging film that you will be thank­ful you have seen.”~Graeme Tuckett, The Post

Aroview: Three-time Emmy nominee Melanie Lynskey (Yellow Jackets, The Last of Us) and acclaimed NZ actress Robyn Malcolm (Top fo the Lake, After the Party) star as Anna Osborne and Sonya Rockhouse; two ordinary women who together stand up and take on the government, justice system and a company that will stop at nothing to protect itself, after the 2010 Pike River Mine explosion takes the lives of 29 men underground.

This is a film about the powerless vs. the powerful, of people vs. money, of right vs. wrong. An inspiring true story of an incredible female friendship and together what is possible when you simply won’t give up.
