Monsoon Pictures International in association with The New Zealand Film Commission, Madman Films, NZ On Air, Te Māngai Pāho and Screen Canterbury NZ present Marlon Williams: Ngā Ao E Rua - Two Worlds, the highly anticipated debut feature documentary by Ursula Grace Williams.
A profound and revealing journey of self-discovery, Marlon Williams: Ngā Ao E Rua - Two Worlds follows the renowned singer-songwriter as he embraces Te Reo Māori, exploring his identity as a musician, actor, son, friend, and student of the language. As he navigates the challenges and joys of expressing himself in a new linguistic landscape, Marlon reflects on love, music, and life—questioning what he truly wants from his.
Set against the backdrop of Aotearoa New Zealand’s bicultural identity at a pivotal moment in its history, the film illuminates Marlon’s artistic evolution—his classical training, his country and folk roots, and the Māori musical traditions that have shaped him. In his story, we see echoes of the nation’s own journey toward unity and self-definition.
A heartfelt and joyful exploration of music, language, and transformation, Marlon Williams: Ngā Ao E Rua - Two Worlds is not to be missed.
