Apple Pie is a feature-length artist film by Aotearoa New Zealand artist Sam Hamilton that features Samoan dance artist Ioane Papali’i, and a cast of 25 performers.

Apple Pie was shot and produced over three years on super 16mm film on location in Aotearoa New Zealand, Samoa, and a remote mountaintop astrophysics observatory in the middle of the Oregonian high plain desert.

Pivoting its conceptual ecology around our species ancient, entangled, and increasingly complex relationship with astronomy; Apple Pie is both an experimental enquiry, and homage to the nature of being; to the world; and to the vital confluence of their intersection.
