Loading Docs 2016 - 'Aka'ōu: Tātatau in the Cook Islands
- Description:
- This 2016 Loading Doc introduces a heavily-tattoed Englishman living in Rarotonga. Croc Coulter was an unlikely master of the traditional art of tātatau (tattoo); the documentary follows Coulter as he teaches the art form to an apprentice, Moko Smith. Coulter also lives with cystic fibrosis. It was directed by Robert George, who has Cook Islands Māori and Māori heritage, and a background as both a painter and in post-production work for the screen. The mini documentary was shared internationally; it also featured on National Geographic's Short Film Showcase. Coulter would die in January 2021.
