In the spring of 2002, Errol Wright spent several months filming on the streets of Wellington what has become a story of the quest for peace, of a group of homeless and landless that go by the name Te Whanau o Aotearoa - Caretakers of the Land. A dread-locked Maori Rastafarian who calls himself 'Brother' spearheads the group. Brother, having been expelled from Cuba Mall - his usual abode, relocates to the Cenotaph - the war memorial that flanks Parliament, to establish a "village of peace". In effort to gain an audience with the government and get the message out to the people, he and his street whanau enter into a waiting game, whilst being set upon by the police, the press and riled politicians.

The film also features Rangiahua Peneha, Junior Pihema, Tama Benjamin, Kevin Shaw and Nandor Tanczos.
