The New Zealand International Film Festival has pulled a screening of the film Out of the Blue from Dunedin's Regent Theatre. The decision follows concerns raised by survivors and families of those killed in the 1990 Aramoana massacre. Organisers apologised for the distress caused to those directly affected by the event.
