Winner of seven New Zealand Film & Television Awards including Best Film, Director, and Screenplay, and a work whose 2010 release made it the highest grossing New Zealand film to date, writer/director Taiki Waititi’s Boy enjoys a March 21 Figge Art Museum screening in the venue’s Free Film at the Figge series, its critical consensus at Rotten Tomatoes stating that the movie “possesses the offbeat charm associated with New Zealand film but is also fully capable of drawing the viewer in emotionally.”
