Summary:

Warning: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers should be aware that this content may contain images or names of people who have since passed away. Merimeri Penfold has been a pioneer all her life - as a champion of the Maori language - as a woman leader in the North and at national level - as a composer of haka and waiata - and as a generous, creative influence in many areas of the arts. Merimeri is a lively and inspiring figure who has been involved in many big changes. Her long and eventful life story provides a rich perspective not only on the far North but on many important events and people in the recent history of our country. In the course of the documentary she presents her "dreams" for the future of Maori language and culture.
