Five Fingers of Ginger (2026)

Written and directed by Adam Harvey

When Ginger defends a schoolmate from a bully, she finds herself fighting an unexpected battle. 

This film was made as part of the Misty Flicks Film Festival, Te Awamutu, New Zealand. The Misty Flicks Challenge was a short film competition within the festival, for entries less than10 minutes, made especially for the Challenge and featuring these compulsory elements: a coat hanger, and a character called 'Ginger'.

It was made on location in Waikato, New Zealand, and is our homage to classic Shaw Brothers kung-fu movies. Sasha and Alex learnt their skills at Kihikihi Kyokushin Karate.

Huge thanks to Sash Rinaldi for the voices, and to Matty Thomas Taylor for the original score.
