Red, White & Brass (2023)

"Maka's Dream Game," a comedy-drama based on a true story, tells the story of Maka, a spirited Tongan rugby fan with unwavering optimism. He sets out to attend the Rugby World Cup match between Tonga and France, a goal that requires him to step outside his comfort zone. To get tickets for himself and his friends, Maka boldly offers the organizers a live brass band performance as pre-game entertainment. The challenge? He has no brass band in his village and only four weeks to assemble one. Maka embarks on a lively and often chaotic journey to unite a group of enthusiastic, but inexperienced, villagers. Through hard work, teamwork, and determination, he transforms these unlikely people into a band with a story to tell. The film explores friendship, unity, and the power of shared dreams, all against the vibrant backdrop of the rugby world.
