So can you just tell us what Temurtu, 75 00:03:23,973 --> 00:03:27,213 Speaker 2: the School for Encorrigible and Delinquent Girls actually is. 76 00:03:28,573 --> 00:03:32,373 Speaker 4: It is a school, a government sit up school where 77 00:03:32,413 --> 00:03:35,333 Speaker 4: they sent a bunch of delinquent young women away to 78 00:03:35,373 --> 00:03:39,053 Speaker 4: this island to reform. And the idea is that it 79 00:03:39,093 --> 00:03:41,653 Speaker 4: prepares us for marriage. That's you know, it's said in 80 00:03:41,733 --> 00:03:44,053 Speaker 4: nineteen fifties, and this is the idea. 81 00:03:43,813 --> 00:03:45,693 Speaker 5: Behind the school. Fictional school. 82 00:03:45,773 --> 00:03:51,853 Speaker 4: Yes, and that's where we all meet each other, myself, Nelly, 83 00:03:52,093 --> 00:03:56,173 Speaker 4: Lou and Daisy our trio, and we have like this 84 00:03:57,013 --> 00:04:02,373 Speaker 4: gorgeous little gang that, like this rebellious, wonderful. 85 00:04:01,973 --> 00:04:02,893 Speaker 5: Gang that we create. 86 00:04:02,973 --> 00:04:05,413 Speaker 2: I'm glad you use the word rebellious, but I feel 87 00:04:05,413 --> 00:04:09,133 Speaker 2: like that is the word. And I imagine and this 88 00:04:09,213 --> 00:04:10,893 Speaker 2: is just based on like the movies, right, you know, 89 00:04:10,933 --> 00:04:12,693 Speaker 2: you know when you get the script for the first 90 00:04:12,693 --> 00:04:14,773 Speaker 2: time and it kind of has like a sentence or 91 00:04:14,773 --> 00:04:17,973 Speaker 2: two describing each character as you go down there. I 92 00:04:18,013 --> 00:04:22,413 Speaker 2: would have thought words like delinquent and rebellious from an 93 00:04:22,413 --> 00:04:25,933 Speaker 2: actor's perspective would just be the most exciting things to see, 94 00:04:25,973 --> 00:04:26,373 Speaker 2: are they not? 95 00:04:27,253 --> 00:04:27,733 Speaker 6: For sure? 96 00:04:27,973 --> 00:04:28,853 Speaker 4: Yeah? 97 00:04:28,933 --> 00:04:29,533 Speaker 5: Well, it's funny. 98 00:04:29,613 --> 00:04:34,573 Speaker 6: My character description was like very well off, well mannered, 99 00:04:35,813 --> 00:04:37,173 Speaker 6: very pretty kind of perfect. 100 00:04:37,613 --> 00:04:39,213 Speaker 3: You're the posh one set of the tree. 101 00:04:39,653 --> 00:04:43,293 Speaker 6: Yeah, so I think that it was fun to discover 102 00:04:43,453 --> 00:04:45,893 Speaker 6: that underneath all of that is just rebellion. 103 00:04:47,373 --> 00:04:49,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, to kind of unpack that a little bit. 104 00:04:49,693 --> 00:04:54,933 Speaker 2: It's funny because in a sense, it is a heavy 105 00:04:55,013 --> 00:04:57,933 Speaker 2: kind of subject, right, Like, you know, we've we've been 106 00:04:57,933 --> 00:05:00,813 Speaker 2: talking a lot about institutions and you know, where we 107 00:05:00,813 --> 00:05:03,093 Speaker 2: put our young people in New Zealand over the last 108 00:05:03,133 --> 00:05:08,133 Speaker 2: couple of years. And despite that theme, it feels like 109 00:05:08,133 --> 00:05:12,893 Speaker 2: there's a real like lightness or like a real like 110 00:05:13,173 --> 00:05:16,053 Speaker 2: sense of love throughout the film that I don't know, 111 00:05:16,133 --> 00:05:19,733 Speaker 2: manages to kind of strike a really important balance. So 112 00:05:19,773 --> 00:05:21,373 Speaker 2: is that something you guys were quite conscious of. 113 00:05:21,573 --> 00:05:21,773 Speaker 1: Yeah? 114 00:05:21,813 --> 00:05:25,173 Speaker 4: Absolutely, And I think you know, you put like most 115 00:05:25,213 --> 00:05:27,453 Speaker 4: of the cast being Maori young women. 116 00:05:27,413 --> 00:05:28,613 Speaker 5: And you put them in the sitting. 117 00:05:28,773 --> 00:05:32,093 Speaker 4: Of course, all of those conversations are differently there. But 118 00:05:33,213 --> 00:05:35,613 Speaker 4: I think our main focus going into it were the 119 00:05:35,653 --> 00:05:40,573 Speaker 4: relationships between the three of us and finding the joy, 120 00:05:40,653 --> 00:05:44,733 Speaker 4: finding the connection, the humor, the I don't know, like 121 00:05:44,773 --> 00:05:47,053 Speaker 4: all of that goodness that can come out of those relationships. 122 00:05:47,413 --> 00:05:50,373 Speaker 4: And less so focusing on that on that sitting. So 123 00:05:50,373 --> 00:05:52,613 Speaker 4: it was something that we were definitely conscious of, and 124 00:05:52,693 --> 00:05:54,333 Speaker 4: of course the creators were conscious. 125 00:05:53,973 --> 00:05:54,413 Speaker 5: Of as well. 126 00:05:54,653 --> 00:05:57,013 Speaker 6: Yeah, Joe's was great.

Like what did you think, nat like, 136 00:06:23,293 --> 00:06:26,493 Speaker 2: like reflecting on the standards that were expected of young women, 137 00:06:26,973 --> 00:06:29,853 Speaker 2: even you know, only seventy years or so ago. 138 00:06:30,813 --> 00:06:34,853 Speaker 6: Now, it's funny.
