“An RNZ documentary on the violent end of the occupation at Parliament grounds”
An RNZ documentary on the violent end of the occupation at Parliament grounds. On 2 March 2022, police cleared hundreds of people from a sprawling occupation and protest in the area around New Zealand’s Parliament. The conclusion of the three-week occupation was angry and violent. Previously unseen footage gives fresh insight into the rage that overtook some people. And eyewitness accounts take us back to the chaos, confusion and shock of it all.
