Rangi's life changes one night when he tries to protect his mum from being beaten by her boyfriend. However, she is badly injured and taken to hospital. Rangi goes to live with Nan and Koro, and during this time, he gets a homework project he thinks is impossible—about his mum and her work. He believes he can't do it because his mum doesn't work.

But Nan and Koro know differently and get out photographs, articles, and trophies to show Rangi her achievements and abilities as an activist, volunteer, fundraiser, and sports champion. When Rangi shows these to his mum and they talk about the stories, she is reminded of her capabilities and self-worth.

Rangi is inspired, works hard on the project, and his presentation is a success. He Mahi Taunga Kore is a powerful tale of resilience, family bonds, and discovering inner strength.
