Andrea Levy began writing when she was in her mid-thirties and draws on her experience of growing up black in what she says was still a very white England. Although born in London, her parents migrated to England from Jamaica. She says she has a complex perspective on the land of her birth. Her latest book The Long Song is set in early 19th century Jamaica during the last years of slavery and the period immediately after emancipation.

Kathryn talks to Taika Waititi – writer, director and actor, whose latest film Boy hits the screens on March 25. The film was shot in Taika's childhood home town of Waihau Bay in the eastern Bay of Plenty. It is the story of a young boy who imagines his father, Alamein (Played by Waititi) is a heroic figure, and not the inept criminal he really is.
