About
This is the story of Puhi an aged Maori woman and Niki her fully grown but wholly dependent son The world they occupy is not a world of large events but the rituals of everyday life traditions and interdependence In Spring One Plants Alone documents the minutiae of their very enclosed existence Filmed over a period of one and a half years it emerges as a rare haunting and powerful portrayal of their life together This is the story of their rituals and of their survival The small and disconnected instances that we encounter form a lone vision of the rifts and the bond between an old woman and her disturbed son
