We believe the heart of Aotearoa lies in the stories of its people, the farmers, bushmen, Māori elders, and rural communities who shaped our whenua into the place we know today. As time moves forward, we are losing many of these voices. Landlines exists to capture them, to honour the past and inspire the future.

We tell the stories of our OG’s (originals) through documentary photography, videography and storytelling written features.
