Product Description
''The Best Film Of 2016'' Empire Magazine
Raised on hip-hop and foster care, defiant city kid Ricky (Julian Dennisson) gets a fresh start in the New Zealand countryside. He quickly finds himself at home with his new foster family: the loving Aunt Bella, the grumpy Uncle Hec (Sam Neill: Jurassic Park, Peaky Blinders) and dog Tupac. When a tragedy strikes that threatens to ship Ricky to another home, both he and Hec go on the run in the bush.
As a national manhunt ensues, the newly branded outlaws must assess their options:
go out in a blaze of glory or overcome their differences and survive as a family.
Hunt for the Wilderpeople is a hilarious, touching crowd-pleaser directed by award-winner Taika Waititi (What We Do in the Shadows, Thor: Ragnarok).
Extras: Bloopers, Featuurette, Director's Commentary, Making Of
