Maori face tattooing, Ta Moko, is a tradition that was almost lost through colonization, but Bernard and Sapphire are passionate about seeing Maori communities unite and heal through rediscovering their customs.

TA MOKO - BEHIND THE TATTOOED FACE tells their stories of pain and hope as they demonstrate this passion by receiving Ta Moko of their own.
