Notes: | - | |||||
Synopsis: | cleverly shows up the hypocrisy of four ordinary white New Zealanders by first revealing their complacent moral superiority over a Dutch couple who are horrified that the District Nurse is a Maori, only to have the foreign couple relentlessly expose the limitations of their own tolerance. The cup of tea which smooths all over at the end is meant to leave a bitter taste. | |||||
