Set on the Banks Peninsula, South Island, in the 1960’s. This is a warmhearted and open-eyed snapshot of life in New Zealand’s 20th century rural communities.
An insightful glimpse into the concerns, dreams and joys of childhood.
The story centres around Michael Hope, a young boy, who lives on a volcano. While geological rumblings may remain deep underground, unrest in the adult world threatens to erupt into his life, changing everything.
Peninsula is a bittersweet coming of age story, rich with Kiwi nostalgia, brought to you by 5 talented actors who play two characters each - one young and one older.

Hi there,
I have a bit of a random request.
I was hoping someone may have an old ships wheel and/or a old life ring that I could please borrow just for 1 day (22nd Feb) . I have been hunting op shops and trade me etc with no luck. It is just to be used as decoration at my sons birthday party, so doesn't need to be in great condition, and I can pick up and drop back after the party.
Thanks so much in advance,
Jo McDermott
