Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Hunt for the Wilderpeople is a 2016 New Zealand comedy-drama film directed by Taika Waititi and starring Sam Neill and Julian Dennison, based on the 1986 book Wild Pork and Watercress by Barry Crump.Ricky, a fat, gangsta-obsessed Māori city kid who has been through a succession of foster placements, is sent to live on a remote farm with new foster parent "Aunty Bella" and her grouchy, withdrawn husband Hec. After a shaky start, he finds a home, until Bella dies suddenly and Ricky decides to hide out in the bush rather than be taken back into the indifferent embrace of Child Services. Hec goes to fetch him out, and a string of accidents and misunderstandings results in the two of them going on the run from a manhunt convinced that Hec has abducted Ricky. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Hec goes to jail and Ricky is placed with a new family (though one who treats him well). Later subverted when Hec and Ricky are reunited and go off in the bush together to look for the huia they saw earlier in the movie. | |

Berserk Button: Never call Hec a pervert, as one hunter finds out the hard way. Hec initially fractures his leg while charging at Ricky for making fun of how he can't read. | |

Comically Missing the Point: After reading a poster which describes official fears that Hec, described as a "a Caucasian male in his 60s," may have abducted and harmed Ricky, Ricky says indignantly that they obviously don't know anything about Hec — he's not Asian. | |
