The Convert

The Convert follows Munro, a soldier turned lay preacher, who journeys to New Zealand to minister to British colonists. However, he finds himself transformed by the powerful chief Maianui, which leads him to serve a different purpose altogether.

This film features a strong cast, including Guy Pearce and Tioreore Ngatai-Melbourne. Its setting in the 1830s gives it a unique period piece appeal, focusing on the intersection of cultures during a pivotal time in New Zealand's history.

For collectors, The Convert is available on DVD, making it accessible for those interested in action and drama films that highlight Maori culture and historical narratives.
