A traveling cinema showing solid gold kiwi film and TV classics is coming to the South Island.
Magic moments from screens big and small, and a programme of classic New Zealand short films, are coming to 19 towns in a souped-up retro kiwi caravan called ‘New Zealand on Screen,’ as part of the REAL New Zealand Festival from 9 September – 23 October 2011.
The caravan will take the long way along the Mainland, starting in Picton then spending the next four weeks tripping around the South Island. The caravan will stop along the way at southern centres, before spending two weeks camped at Hagley Park, Christchurch, in the Rugby World Cup fan zone.
The content on display is a choice selection of moving image content from the www.nzonscreen.com website.
