After four years leading the New Zealand Film Commission, Dave Gibson will step down as CEO in January.
Waititi (Boy, What We Do in the Shadows) will appear in conversation at a screening of the film at Sydney's Chauvel Cinema on Monday May 23.
The promotion brings together independent cinemas in a coordinated promotional effort, allowing them to hold their own preview screenings with intros from director Waititi alongside the screening of exclusive, never-seen-before footage.
