A real crowd-pleaser, this gem of a movie tackles mental illness and homelessness with heart and compassion. Set in Auckland, New Zealand, the film follows Arthur (Rawiri Paratene, Whale Rider), a Maori psychiatric patient who claims to be the second son of God, as he tries to prevent the closure of a boarding house for men with mental illness. The performances are superb, especially from Paratene and Kiwi acting legend Ian Mune, and the sensitive subject matter is portrayed with just the right amount of humour.
