Mauri is a cinematic invitation into the healing traditions of Aotearoa, a journey carried by Māori healers, elders, and knowledge keepers who tend to intergenerational wounds through land, language, and ceremony.
Filmed in close relationship with those who carry ancestral wisdom, Mauri reveals how healing is not an individual pursuit but a collective remembering — guided by spirit, whenua (land), and the relational threads that colonial disruption could not sever.
With breathtaking imagery and intimate storytelling, the film brings us into the spaces where trauma is not “treated” but held, where stories, prayers, medicines, and rituals offer pathways back to connection.
Mauri does not explain Māori healing. It moves with it — listening to what still pulses beneath silence, and honoring what remains alive in the hands of those who never forgot.
