1991
Streaming Video
An inquiry into the aims, methods and achievements of the Progressive Youth Movement, Kiwi political activists in the turbulent '60s. The Progressive Youth Movement (PYM) was at the vortex of political protest and youth rebellion in New Zealand during the turbulent era of the Vietnam War. In this documentary prominent members of the Christchurch and Wellington PYM groups reflect on the personal and social circumstances which propelled them into revolt against the conservative Holyoake Government and all it stood for. They disclose the passion with which they fought for an end to the war, for the severing of links with racist South Africa, and for liberation from the stifling social mores of the time.
