Kwitchatown is about a white-baiting community in the South Island where men shelter from the rest of the world and find solace in the landscape and ritual capture of the immature fry of fish.
The two creators of the film, Tim Flower and Hamish Pattison discovered the town while on a road trip of the West Coast and decided to do a film about a part of New Zealand they thought wasn't in the spotlight much.
The culture of whitebaiting and the West Coast are portrayed amid beautiful shots of the raw, natural scenery.
The film will be released to the public at 11am Wednesday, November 1 on The Wireless website.
One of the co-directors, Tim Flower, talks to Jesse about the making of the film.
