From award-winning directors Paul Middleditch (Terra Nova, A Cold Summer) and Hamish Bennett (Bellbird) , Uproar is a moving and heartwarming story about connection and finding your place in the world. Set in Dunedin in 1981, a rugby-obsessed country is divided over the arrival of the South African Springboks team, sparking nationwide protests. Under pressure from home and school to conform, 17-year-old Josh Waaka (Julian Dennison) , who has never felt like he fits in anywhere, is inspired by the protests and by a newfound passion for performing to find his own voice.
