Ko Che Fu rātou ko tana matua ko Tigilau Ness me ana mokopuna, i hoki katoa anō rā ki tō ratou ūkaipo, whai haere tēnei pakipūmeka i ngā reanga takitoru ki te moana nui a Kiwa, ki te moutere i whanau mai i a Tingilau, arā ki Niue.

“New Zealand hip-hop artist, Che Fu and his father, musician Tigilau Ness, share an intimate pilgrimage to their island homeland of Niue. Their first ever journey to the tiny pacific atoll to perform at the Niue Arts and Culture Festival has a profound and unexpected effect on their whole family.”

“In our increasingly global society, hundreds of millions of people born and living away from the homelands which still shape “Sons from Afar” is a universal story about connecting with our ancestry and finding our place in the world.” - Che Fu
