Kokako: If you were watching television a couple of Sundays ago you may have seen double. What we mean is you may have been doing a little channel surfing and found actress, Rena Owen playing two different roles in two absolutely different movies.
Rena played the role of Beth Heke in "Once Were Warriors" and the mother of Pony, the young Māori rugby player who travelled to Britain last century and whose life story is depicted in the film, "Savage Play". Libby visited Rena at her home at one of Auckland's Western beaches. Rena spoke about her life living in London and other highlights and lowlights such as prison. How she started to write plays in prison then enrolled in drama / acting courses. Her first Acting Break.
Music: Temuera Morrison - "The Nature of Love" from the movie, "Once Were Warriors"
Interviews: with Ian Robert; Chris Carter MP; Barney Thompson; Russell Holmes; Clive Aspin
Male Call - Waea Mai Tane Ma is a research project funded by the New Zealand Health Research Council and managed by the NZ Aids Foundation about men who have sex with other men. Male Call's research technique involves a toll-free 0800 number to encourage gay and bisexual men to talk about their sex lives with trained Male Call interviewers. Male Call is hoping for up to 1500 men from diverse backgrounds to ring in. The results will be used to design and plan more efficient and effective HIV prevention programs, target Māori men's sexual health and to influence policymaking. Male Call was launched on Friday in Auckland where the first person I spoke with was Australian rugby League player Ian Robert who said public perception about gays has changed.
Music: Waka Huia - "Taranaki Maunga"
Music: The String of Pearls - "Engine, Engine number 9"
