Written and directed by Taika Waititi, Eagle vs Shark is a quirky romantic comedy about Lily, an awkward loner, and Jarrod, an offbeat self-proclaimed warrior, as they navigate love, revenge, and self-acceptance in the face of life’s oddities.

As part of Te Papa’s Annual Appeal, koha entry is encouraged to support the care and preservation of Aotearoa New Zealand’s taonga.
