A dramatised documentary of New Zealand's role as a Colonial power. The invasion in 1914 of the then German Colony of Samoa. The great influenza epidemic which killed over a quarter of the Samoan population. The rise of a national independence movement. The Mau and the tragic events of "Black Saturday" 28th December 1929. The 1975 end of migration from the Pacific, dawn raids and deportation of law breakers. What is the legacy of all this?
