From the Naked Samoans, national treasure & makers of Bro'Town : a comedy set in Grey Lynn about four boys who’ve failed to age sensibly.
In the early '90s they were the Duckrockers, a break dancing crew, now the boys (Knightley – also co-writer, Magasiva, Lelisi, Ah Hi) are about to be smacked by age 30, and are still renowned for drunkenness, general tomfoolery and wrecking family events & weddings because of it. As one of their younger brothers’ wedding approaches, they are summoned by their minister (Lees) and told to find and bring along lady friends. Dating and maturity-finding hijinks ensue. Also look out for David Fane (the voice of the father in ‘bro Town & the funniest of the troupe), as an advice giving cousin.
