The Upraised Hand

After a disaster at sea and the failure of a "get-rich-quick-plan" two fisherman find themselves involved in a wave of crime that has them running for their lives across the high seas off New Zealand's eastern coastline and through the rugged wilderness of the Raukumara Ranges.
Based on true events, the Williams brothers will lead you on an adventure that will take you from the commercial fishing grounds of Mahia Peninsula to the summit of Mount Hikurangi, the first place in the world to catch the morning sun.
Through the drastic economic downturn of the 1980's, that at the time created high unemployment, this fast paced drama will bring you into the obscure drug world of the Rastafarian society who live on the isolated East Coast.
