Enlightening
huriwain7 July 2019
I really enjoyed this film. It was put together so nicely & a lovely little insight into the life of Hugh D. Wilson. I would've loved to hear more about the mana whenua of Akaroa , this short film has given me just enough information to research further for myself. Thank you.

Enlightening and inspirational
myzone_v2 July 2019
I was fortunate to attend the premiere of this astonishing documentary in Akaroa, New Zealand, a stone's thrown away from Hinewai reserve, the subject of the film. As a layperson rather than a botanist or environmentalist I was most struck by the balance and accessibility of this inspirational story. Told simply and with humility and passion, this outstanding treasure of a film connects the viewer with an intensely personal journey by an extraordinary man. The take-away message remains with me and will continue to do so. Believe in what you know to be true. Do what you know to be important. Follow your dreams, Fools and Dreamers, and they will become a reality that will change the world. Thank you Hugh Wilson and the filmmakers for this gift to our planet.

Inspiring
succulentstephie3 July 2019
Loved everything about this film. Hinewai and Huge are both national treasures and to be a fool and a dreamer in a world dictated by conformity is truly inspiring. It is the fools and dreamers that show us what is possible and what we are all capable of we trust our instincts and our environment. Thank you Huge for doing you so well. A must view for all, young and aged and in between.

Amazing movie. So very inspiring. What Hugh is doing at Hinewai is fantastic. It's great to see how much change there has been in just 30 years
