Ka Mate: The Haka, The Legend (2011)
Ka Mate is the haka that the All Blacks perform to acknowledge and challenge their opponents before important matches. Its story, however, extends well beyond the rugby field. It takes us back to the great chief Te Rauparaha, a visionary leader of the Ngāti Toa iwi (tribe) in the 1800s.
