Maori Detective posterFriends, sup­port­ers and oth­er inter­ested parties are invited to assemble at The Estab­lish­ment on the corner of Blair St and Cour­tenay Place on Sunday even­ing to watch a bit of telly, spe­cific­ally the C4 broad­cast of the V 48 Hours Nation­al Final.

Three Wel­ling­ton films are in con­ten­tion for the big prize (and the even big­ger prize for Best Cine­ma­to­graphy): Wel­ling­ton win­ner Maori Detect­ive and the Boo­gie Fever (Team Good Times) and Peter Jack­son-selec­ted wild­cards Shoot­ing Star (Will She Wait) and Whore­Cop 3: Night Justice (The Three Dicks).

View­ers around the coun­try will be vot­ing by text as soon as the show fin­ishes – come along and add your sup­port. The broad­cast starts at 8.30 but the entire Wel­ling­ton Final 12 (plus Taika Wai­titi’s ineligible but hil­ari­ous Arab Samurai) will be screened again from 7.30 to warm you up.
