Movies + TV Highlights

This month’s Movies + TV highlights feature an array of compelling content, from factual docuseries to satirical comedy.

Take your students on an epic historical investigation with Marc Fennell in the brand-new season of Stuff the British Stole. In season three, Fennell travels to the corners of the globe where priceless objects were stolen by the British Empire. Armed with a team of historians, Fennell unveils the stories behind the artefacts before they were permanently curated in British museums. This six-part series asks the question ‘will these objects ever be returned to their communities?’.

ABC introduces a new workplace comedy with a sports twist in Ground Up. A comical lens into the corporate side of Australian sport, this satirical series follows the beginnings of Tasmania’s new AFL team; however, the journey to get the team playing in a yet-to-be-built stadium presents a slew of bureaucratic roadblocks. In a sports-obsessed country, Ground Up is a uniquely Australian exploration into satirical comedy.

A highlight exclusively for New Zealand schools, join Tūhoe Valley native Rapaera Black, also known as Tuna Dundee, in the new series Tuna Dundee: Keep It Native. Across six episodes, Black is joined by his daughter and nephew, as he passes down traditional knowledge of living off the land. A lesson in reconnecting with the land, sustainability and cultural customs, this series is an excellent resource for learning about Tūhoe farming and food practices.

Are we living in an age of loneliness? Available for New Zealand and Australian schools, the documentary The Great Disconnect argues that we are, with individuals living more disconnected lives from community than ever before. This modern-day crisis of disconnection is investigated by experts who explore the evolution of social isolation and the impacts loneliness is having on mental and physical health. A topical and eye-opening investigation, this documentary is a must-watch study for the importance of community and connection.
