Friday Night Bites is an awkward comedy about a bunch of young women who don't know what they're doing in this life - but trying their damnedest to make it awesome. Examining what it is to be young, diverse, and female in an Auckland flat, Friday Night Bites explores everything pop-culture, political and emotional - from sexual foibles to quantum physics.

One-time Maori speed-chess champ, Genesis Potini, lives with a bi-polar disorder and must overcome prejudice and violence in the battle to save his struggling chess club, his family and ultimately, himself.
