Does anyone know where I can find this TV show?

I'm looking for ways I can find the New Zealand TV show Tongue Tied (2018). I'm open to buying it, streaming it, youtube or other sources.

It is "a 7 x 26 minute comedy, created by Albert Belz and Tainui Tukiwaho, and written by Albert Belz and Dane Giraud. At Kura Po, teacher Haami Samuels (Maaka Pohatu) attempts to teach a rag-tag group of modern Kiwi misfits tied together by their desire to learn te reo, in the teeth of staunch opposition from principal Hihi Smith."

It used to be available on the MaoriTV website but I see that it no longer is. Not helpful, I know. Sorry.

Also not helpful, it was on TVNZ+. It looks like it's available in the Auckland University media centre, if you know somebody who is a student?

Tainui Tukiwaho is identified as being a founder of, and currently on the board of, this NZ theatre company. I suggest reaching out to him about access to the film via the ‘contact us’ page, as they welcome questions.
