...mountains. Innovatively shot from the perspective of an 11-year-old Samoan boy called Tino, as he struggles to bring up his five siblings on a housing estate while his parents are busy making money and more babies, O Tamaiti (The Children) took out the coveted Silver Lion at the Venice Film Festival, a first for a Pacific Islander director. Hinting at domestic violence, the film offered a strikingly dark view of Samoan life.
