We are fanatical about telling Kiwi stories. We swell with pride at the thought of screening the films that help to define our national identity. We believe in the potential of our endemic industry and we recognise the importance of supporting its unique and distinctive voice.
Rialto Channel’s New Zealand Film Month is a chance to continue to discuss the future of our industry, but, more importantly, it’s also a time to celebrate the incredible talent in this country, and enjoy the many stories they have to tell.
So, to celebrate New Zealand Film Month in December, Rialto Channel brings you an incredible range of New Zealand films: heartbreaking dramas, soul-searching documentaries, as well as a musical and a ballet.
Discover a kiwi film every Wednesday and Thursday nights at 8:30pm .
We are also very proud to announce Rialto Channel is the Official Naming-Rights Sponsor for the The Rialto Channel New Zealand Film Awards. The Rialto Channel New Zealand Film Awards take place on Friday December 12, will be broadcast on Rialto Channel Saturday December 20th at 5:25pm.
