HIGH TIDE DON’T HIDE covers a group of New Zealand students who in 2019 along with students worldwide took to the streets demanding immediate climate change action. The Rebel Film Collective documented a group of Kiwi teenagers preparing for the protest in New Zealand. As the young organisers bring the Aotearoa School Strike 4 Climate movement together, a painful truth emerges; climate change has a disproportionate effect on indigenous people. Kiwi-Pasifika poet Aigagaleifili Fepulea’i Tapua’i forms a breakaway group to ensure climate change impacts on Pacific nations is acknowledged.
In Aotearoa New Zealand, filmmakers The Rebel Film Collective started shooting seven months before what became the world’s biggest ever climate change strike. We were given intimate access to New Zealand students’ meetings, homes and personal video diaries to record how the local movement began. weaving the stories of five teenagers as they lead their communities to strike for climate.
We were there when an unexpected turn of events changed the face of the protests. High Tide Don’t Hide reveals the inner processes of teenagers mobilising record-setting numbers of children and adults…while dealing with the looming threat of climate change, interpersonal politics, and the need to just be teenagers.

THE POWER OF THE DOG is filmed in the South Island and set in 1925 Montana. The Burbank brothers (Cumberbatch & Plemons) are wealthy ranchers in Montana. At the Red Mill restaurant on their way to market, the brothers meet Rose (Dunst), the widowed proprietress, and her impressionable son Peter (Smit-McPhee). Phil (Cumberbatch) behaves so cruelly he drives them both to tears, reveling in their hurt and rousing his fellow cowhands to laughter – all except his brother George (Plemons), who comforts Rose then returns to marry her.
As Phil swings between fury and cunning, his taunting of Rose takes an eerie form – he hovers at the edges of her vision, whistling a tune she can no longer play. His mockery of her son is more overt, amplified by the cheering of Phil’s cowhand disciples. Then Phil appears to take the boy under his wing. Is this latest gesture a softening that leaves Phil exposed, or a plot twisting further into menace?
