âServe or protect?â
Inspired by actual events, MURU is the story of a local Police Sergeant âTaffyâ TÄwharau, who must choose between duty to his badge or his people, when the Government invoke antiterrorism powers to launch an armed raid on Taffyâs remote Urewera community, on a school day. This gripping action drama is not a re-creation, but a response to the 2007 TÅ«hoe raids. MURU is a MaÌori concept for 'forgivenessâ.
