Welcome back to RealityBites—a space where we explore what it means to be fully human! Today’s episode is an invitation. An invitation to open… To life. To truth. To yourself. To all of it. To healing. To maybe meeting yourself for the first time, in a while. You see, life isn’t just the moments that make us smile, or the wins we post about. Life is everything.

It’s also the laughter that bubbles up from nowhere, the connection that surprises you, and the peace that...

THE TRUE STORY OF THE WELLINGTON PROTESTS THAT THE NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT TRIED TO IGNORE AND THE MEDIA ATTEMPTED TO SUPPRESS.
In 2020-22, the New Zealand government enacted emergency laws, mandates and a medical passport system that caused thousands of New Zealanders to lose jobs, businesses, homes and health. Furthermore, those people were locked out of New Zealand society, unable to go to funerals or weddings, participate in sport, visit loved ones in rest homes or even to visit cafes and hairdressers.
But when New Zealanders who had suffered under the measures stood up to exercise their democratic rights of protest and freedom of expression, instead of trying to calm the tensions, the government ignored and demonised those who protested as a “river of filth”. And the media censored them and labelled them as white-supremacists and far-right extremists.
In the end, the divide became so large that the biggest protest movement in New Zealand’s history became inevitable, leading to the Freedom Convoy and Freedom Village occupation on the lawns and streets around parliament in February 2022. And as it happened, award-winning documentary filmmaker, Alistair Harding followed along, living amongst the protesters, filming the events and recording the stories of the people who participated.
The result is We Came Here for Freedom – a documentary film in two parts giving voice to the thousands of New Zealanders who were ignored and mis-represented by their own government and media.
In this episode we chat with award winning New Zealand filmmaker Alistair Harding, who documented the Wellington Protests of February 2022. We get a behind the scenes perspective of those events, how the film came about, it’s impact and a better understanding of what really happened from the people who were there.
The film which is in two parts can be viewed for free on https://wecamehereforfreedom.com/ takes viewers on an intimate journey with the Freedom Convoy that led to the Freedom Camp in Wellington on Parliament grounds.
For those who were there, the film is an historic documentation of the fight for freedom and for those that were not, an opportunity to experience what really happened from a perspective not seen by the New Zealand media.
