The Sculptor From Rūnanga

An elderly and reclusive West Coast-based sculptor goes on hunger strike ‘to the end’ as a protest against the Gaza genocide. A political innocent, from making a one man stand in Greymouth’s civic square, he is swept into the growing protest movement, finding his own voice, before being ‘disappeared’ by the US government. A historian, discovering his journal, fleshes out the personal story through interviewing the diverse people the sculptor from Rūnanga has come in contact with during his journey to martyrdom.
