Abstract: Two Kiwi boys take a road trip to Jerusalem while a seven-year-old girl deals with the divorce of her parents better than they do. New Zealand's youngest murderer meets public enemy No.1 and a vodka-swilling Nana helps her daughter fix her useless family for good. An expert teaches us how to feed our bellies and feed our hearts through baking Maori bread. A young woman loses herself in a map-world of paper roads, we are taken on an epic journey from colonial prostitutes to iPhones, and straight and gay bromance get confused while riding in cars - welcome to Here/Now.
