Summary
He Toki Huna (title taken from M?ori proverb, ?the hidden adze cuts the most sharply?) explores Aotearoa New Zealand?s longest military involvement ? the country?s engagement in the war in Afghanistan. The documentary also provides context to some of Afghanistan?s turbulent history before and after the events of 9/11.? The film asks three questions: Why did NZ go into Afghanistan? What did they do there? And why did we hear so little about it? (Photo credit: c. Lionel Coninck). .
