Uproar, an interview by Bill Baker with Directors Hamish Bennett and Paul Middleditch

In this bonus interview, Bill Baker sits down with the directors of the film, Uproar, starring Minnie Driver, Rhys Darby and Julian Dennison. Hamish Bennett and Paul Middleditch talk about the story behind the film and working with the incredible cast. Uproar is set in New Zealand in 1981, when the arrival of the South African Springboks sets off nationwide protests against apartheid and racism. Josh Waaka, played by Julien Dennison, a 17-year-old of mixed race who has been a passive bystander all his life, is suddenly forced to stand up for himself, his whānau, or family, and his future. Dennison's acting is superb, filled with humor and emotions.  You can also watch the interview on Eagles Overseas' Youtube page: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo6u8acnpDyxri0a3pcJ1cQ   Learn more about your ad choices.
