Produced by Alex Hunter Roadie is a comedy/crime/drama webseries set in our own beautiful backyard. The story follows a mismatched duo: Alister, a timid germaphobe and Zak, an off-the-rails crook, who are being hunted down by a fierce hitwoman (played by Loren Martin) as they try to journey from Wellington to Auckland.
What's special about this production is that it's entirely self-funded - and we all know what a lot of blood, sweat and tears self-funding can produce - so ka pai Alex and the Roadie team!
One of the creators and actors, Taylor Nixon, who plays Zak, says they wanted a diverse range of voices and collaborators involved, and to give a voice to fresh and emerging talent.
The pilot will be released on 17 August here on the Roadie Youtube channel.
