- Jinx Sister is a story about Laura (Wiseman) who is convinced she is a jinx. People who get close to her have a habit of dying. She thought fleeing to the other side of the world would help. Instead, she developed a serious drink problem. Waking one night in an alley, with no recollection of who she had sex with, Laura decides its time to face up to her past. Laura returns to New Zealand and enters the unfamiliar Polynesian world her sister Marie (Nash) inhabits. Here, money and appearance are not what count. With the help of Sam (Rawiri), a Maori, who has had it tough but is far more together than Laura, and Hine (Heka), a Polynesian single mum, Laura discovers that it is your connections with other people that make life worth living. She reconnects with her sister and her husband Phil (Wallace), when tragedy does strike, Laura rises to the occasion. Jinx Sister is a 'growing of age' story, a meditation on how the past affects the present. It deals with sibling rivalry, loss, our need for intimacy and the stories we spin that imprison us if we let them.

- Edible Paradise captures the birth of the food forest movement in New Zealand. With people and communities coming together, to connect and grow. Nowhere is the opportunity to come together to actively grow our future more evident than in Christchurch, a city struggling to rebuild after the devastating February 2011 Earthquake. This natural disaster destroyed almost 80 percent of the city's buildings and left hundreds of hectares of prime land unable to be rebuilt on. After the houses were removed from the 'red zones' some people in the city had the vision to turn Christchurch, the 'Garden City', into an 'Edible Garden City of the Future.' This shift in thinking had its challenges and this film shares the journey of convincing the Christchurch City Council to turn over a new leaf by supporting the public planting of fruit and nut trees in hundreds of parks and reserves; turning the often marginal land into an Edible Paradise.
