Description

In this detailed and very readable book, Deborah Shepard paints a vivid picture of New Zealand film history, with frank interviews and first-hand stories from women who have worked behind the camera, and often behind the scenes, over the last 60 years. Their legacy is a vibrant array of films that have delighted, challenged, and often shocked audiences. Women in Film takes us from the cutting room to Cannes: from the first camerawoman, Hilda Hayward, who filmed the Auckland riots in 1932, through the gritty realist-inspired short films of the '70s, to the glossy features and experimental movies of the '80s and '90s. Illustrated with over 100 photographs, this is a long overdue tribute to some of our most talented women artists. It is also certain to be the standard reference work for years to come.
