Hello. komşu. I'm from Bulgaria. I also happened to see this lonely place on the map and was interested to see what it looked like. God bless you too.

I'm from Tasmania, and i thought this was isolated. This place Strangely sings to me, im definitely visiting some day.

What a comforting message in these uncertain times. Thank you ❤️❤️

What a different lifestyle, brought me to tears, I have always lived in st.louis,mo.It has changed into the mean streets.

Looks wonderful. Lucky people 🙂

Fascinating documentary! I visited the Chathams last year and saw the Moriori tree carvings, Kaingaroa and the old boat plane. Wonder how old the documentary was, the boat plane was enclosed in the completed shed.

When I visited in 2018, the shed was there then.

Despite the somewhat misleading title, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this docu-video of life in the Chatham Islands. Absolutely love the lifestyle and what the locals do to upkeep the integrity of their environment. Did not see what is in place in terms of health and medical preparedness on the islands but from what I've seen already of their resourcefulness, I'm pretty confident their health setup is as good as what it needs to be. Congratulations to everyone involved in keeping the Chatham candle burning and who knows, I might come for a peek one of these days.

As a Canadian, it's interesting listening to so many New Zealanders talk in such a strong accent.

Thank you- I really enjoyed this!

Police officer his a cool daddy for his kids,, people are friendly and amazing.

Really enjoyed this one!

I hope this unique place carefully screens all incoming flights for some time to come. They are not prepared!😞

Wow it’s so beautiful mesmerizing love the island

Beautiful looking place to live.

Really liking the albatross art! 🙂

Really perfect place to avoid madness of the world. Far from others country. Amazing place. Love it. Greet from Malaysia,Sarawak❤

omg, the song the kids were singing in school suddenly brought me vivid memories, since i left nz when i was only 7 so barely remember much of it but that song always lingered in the back of my mind and now it just came out like a flood. its a strange feeling now wanting to visit NZ again, after couple of decades. this island place is amazing and the people there are so lucky and blessed!

Wonderful place hopefully all them islands stay beautiful. Just don’t let the wrong people move in. Miss the live chats they used to have on this channel.

I have always been charmed by New Zealand whether it's one of their smaller islands or their bigger ones. I wish I could visit Chatham Islands. Am a teacher from the Philippines.

What a lovely place. Reminds me of another sparsely populated island-the Scottish isle of Eigg-also a paradise.🏝🌋🌞

Lovely documentary, it just oozes positive vibes:)

I absolutely enjoyed this film, such wonderful people at the bottom of the earth, there’s a certain humbling in their spirit, Kia ora to the people of the Chathams, sister Nic ruahine ranges

Yes! Albatrosses DO have a look of steely determination on their faces! Not noticed that until I heard being said here. 👍

Great documentary, and a perfect length from my perspective, allowing indepth conversations (together with interesting videography, and historical recordings in B&W). An even LONGER version would be quite acceptable, and would NOT put the more intelligent viewers to sleep. The Chatham and Pitt Islanders are set up for the *_Perfect COVID-19 Quarantine Experience,_* as long as they have no one bringing the virus to them. They need to go into lockdown as soon as possible.

@@BrassLock PEOPLE get those goods to and from that island. Depending on the escalating lockdown stages, again, that will impact their accessibility to goods. The lockdown pertains to those who are sick and those who are not and it has extended to Chatham Island. That is common sense. Your "education" attempt was very poor, its sad you considered sharing that little amount of common knowledge a huge bout of your energy. Yes, the island is isolated to a certain extent and for NOW essentials are still in circulation but many in New Zealand now are experiencing forced isolation where they currently are, unable to get on ferries nor take domestic flights and cannot travel to and from freely. Those who transport goods to and from the island also follow these guidelines of a lockdown. So again, that begs the question of how a complete lockdown would affect the islands and their access to essential goods. Since you are under the impression that I'm incorrect in thinking its impacted, you still have yet to clarify an answer.

Oh wow

10:52 aye the check-in.

Excellent documentary but pls change name, it's misleading since there were so many amazing interviews of different inslanders

Is this doco part of a series? Any more like it on NZ?

‘Collectivism’ living, low toxic politics inteferences, Life work balances, low pollution, beautiful nature featuring coasts and terrains. In all the perfect place to be for humans.

When I come to visit I’ll have to try blag my own burger called the hilly burger no onions just extra BACON 🥓 😂

So The Chathams I the pacific version of The Faroe Islands?

Given that that the Moriori, a peaceable people, were nearly annihilated by invading war-mongering Maori, and those that survived were then held in brutal slavery for 30 years, do lingering resentments remain between these two communities to this day?

@SalznPfeffer658

In 1835 when the chatham Islands were invaded by the Ngāti Tama and Ngāti Mutunga, Māori were not united so it's difficult to accept your generalization (consider that at the same time in Europe, Germany did not exist till the 1860s & were city-states rather than a country...like Athens and sparta) considering that at the time, my people Ngāti Maniapoto, The Arawa, & Waikato were peaceable & had a leader championing peace "King Tawhaio ||". Unfortunately that backfired for us. Back to Māori-Moriori. They were decimated, but survived on in mixed māori/moriori still. The events are acknowledged in Māoridom and I think because of this, it helps to accept the burden of what happened and the need to remember and move along with life with these memories. We still cry over the past and the ancestors who suffered because Māori/moriori are collectivistic cultures that worship ancestors and regurgitate history to keep our connections to ancestors alive. I think this form of accountability, helps moriori descendants to grieve and move along. Resentment is too negative a word, remembrance and conciliation is what remains today. :-)
