Giants is a seven-part factual series about legacy, whakapapa, and heritage seen through the lens of different migrant communities in Aotearoa.
The series plays with the idea that immigrants stand on the shoulders of giants, building upon the legacy and whakapapa of their tūpuna.
Through the journey, we learn about some of our newest New Zealanders, how their culture shapes them, and how they are shaping a new legacy in New Zealand, through their community.
The series looks at how the strength of family and community is an integral part of the foundation of New Zealand’s most diverse communities.
