This 1960 National Film Unit documentary, The Maori today, shows a youth-club kapa haka (unidentified, but probably from the Wellington urban marae Ngāti Pōneke) rehearsing a waiata-ā-ringa. This film was apparently made primarily for overseas audiences, at a time when visitors to New Zealand expected to be welcomed by action songs such as this.
