If you want to be the first to see the next instalment of Jane Campion's Top of the Lake, you'd better buckle up and sort out some snacks.
That's because season two of the acclaimed series, China Girl, is debuting in full at the New Zealand International Film Festival - all six hours of it.
The film festival, which kicks off in July in Auckland, today confirmed the Elisabeth Moss police drama will play in one sitting that will screen all six episodes with two intermissions.
Festival director Bill Gosden has seen the series and called it "the most enthralling six hours" he'd spent in a movie theatre this year.
"We can promise you an immersive experience in Auckland and Wellington, and due to the six-hour duration the screenings will have two intermissions," Gosden said.
