 Synopsis

An Angel at My Table, directed by Jane Campion, is a film about Janet Frame, renowned author of NZ literary taonga. Based on Frame's three-part autobiography, it threads together a series of images and scenes evoking and telling Frame's dramatic life story. Originally made as a television drama, the acclaimed and richly-visual film established Jane Campion as an international director, launched the career of actress Kerry Fox, and introduced a broader audience to the "mirror city" of Frame's writing.
