‘Takahoa' is a series created by and for young people, driven by a passion to showcase authentic characters and stories that resonate with diverse experiences in Aotearoa. We explore themes of family, identity, sexuality, friendship, and the journey from adolescence to adulthood. By telling these stories from within the demographic, we aim to provide a genuine and relatable platform for young voices to be heard.
Takahoa is providing a much-needed platform for authentic and representative storytelling. By showcasing the voices, stories, and perspectives of our generation, we're offering a fresh alternative to traditional media. Our platform is built on the idea that by sharing our own stories and experiences, we can create a community that truly understands and supports one another.
