Wij Zijn de Rivier plot

The Whanganui is the second longest river in New Zealand. It is also the first river in the world that, after 150 years of struggle by the Maori, was granted the legal status of a legal person whose health and well-being must be respected. This recognition of his spiritual importance is of immense significance to the Maori. The documentary is about Ned Tapa, a Maori who has lived along the river his entire life. One sees through his eyes how the Maori view nature. How to live in harmony with nature.
