The Black Stilt
Directed by
This film tells the story of the worldās rarest wading bird, the black stilt (kakÄ«). With its precise beak and long pink legs the stilt is superbly adapted to the stony braided riverbeads of the McKenzie Country, but it is tragically unable to deal with new threats (rats, ferrets, habitat loss). An early doco for TVNZās Natural History Unit, the magnificently filmed drama of the stiltās struggle for survival makes it āstand out as a classic of its genreā (Russell Campbell). It won the Gold Award at New Yorkās International Film & TV Festival (1984).
