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.
