"Transfigured Lives: Women's Films of
Empowerment" Series:
Once Were Warriors
"Perhaps the
most difficult film in our series, this exceptional film deals with
a Maori family that is characterized by consistent domestic violence
caused by both alcohol use and ingrained acceptance within the
culture. The opposition to this consistent and sometimes
hard-to-watch violence is transformative for both the family as well
as the audience watching the film. It should be emphasized that this
is a fairly crude film; its lack of Hollywood slickness makes it
much more effective; its director and major crewmembers are female.
A remarkable viewing experience."
[Lee Tamahori, 1994, New Zealand]
Time: 7:00 p.m.
Location:
The Painter's Daughter Art Gallery
