Having lost almost their entire life’s work in the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, iconic New Zealand architects Sir Miles Warren and Maurice Mahoney fight to save their finest building from demolition.  MAURICE AND I is a powerful and enthralling exploration of partnership, loss and the enduring importance of architecture in shaping and enriching our lives. 

MAURICE AND I is a triumph. It has it all -drama, humour, heroes and villains, sadness and suspense... all the depth, insight and sophistication a viewer could hope for.
