Mai 88.6 is pumped to team up with Madman Films for the release of the movie 'Tinā'. 'Tinā' is a powerful, inspirational crowd pleasing movie about the healing power of music. A vibrant celebration of Samoan culture, and in cinemas from February 27.
Samoan teacher Mareta Percival is struggling following a huge personal loss in the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. Reluctantly taking on the role of substitute teacher at an elite, wealthy private school - she is surprised to find children crying out for guidance, inspiration and love. Using the symphony of her culture to empower her students, she forms a choir, bringing them together while unexpectedly rediscovering her passion again for being a teacher and mother.
