  • In the arctic, as Saiva (Michelle Yeoh) is being born, a shaman declares that she is evil and will bring harm to all who become involved with her.

  • The New Zealand crime dramedy can’t wrangle its disparate tones into a satisfying whole. In some ways, Far North offers viewers three shows in one. There’s the harrowing tale of a quartet of Chinese women, Bi (Xana Tang), Jin (Xiao Hu), Hui (Nikita Tu-Bryant), and Ling (Louise Jiang), trapped in a boat off the coast of New Zealand. They’re under the thumb of Cai (Fei Li), a capricious crime middle manager whose corner-cutting and incompetence have left them stranded and facing death by dehydration and starvation. Unfortunately, rescue is almost as unpleasant a prospect as dying. To be saved, Cai demands they either “pay” for the rescue by sinking themselves deeper into debt and servitude or killing one of their own. On the mainland, a different kind of crime story is unfolding. A group of less-than-competent criminals working for Blaze (Fay Tofilau) believe they’re about to get the score of their lives. Employed by her to take in the meth the Chinese women are transporting, they think it’ll be as easy as loading up a camper and driving it a few towns away. Alas, between the delays and their lack of skills, complications rapidly arise. Lastly, stuck in the middle are Ed (Temuera Morrison) and Heather (Robyn Malcolm). The long-married couple lives a modest, contented life of handymanning, water aerobics, and dog care. That is until Blaze’s henchmen reach out, asking for help launching a boat from shore. It isn’t long before the couple know that something is very wrong...
