The huia was a native New Zealand bird treasured for its remarkable character, unique biology and cultural significance to the Maori people. The last huia was sighted in 1907, but it remains a symbol of the precious, treasured, and important. Its extinction was a tragedy.  
Huia Films has a vision of creating films of beauty and lasting worth, with a particular focus on history, conservation, environment and travel.
